Overview

Deep in the woods of Southern Maryland, along the forgotten backroads of La Plata, a cult survives on fear, loyalty, and firelight. They call themselves The People of Memu-a community of drug-fueled, off-the-grid believers who worship pitbulls as sacred beings and live by panhandling the corners of Route 301. But when a teenage boy goes missing after filming a strange ritual in the woods, Detective Marisa Leary follows a trail of blood, whispers, and madness into the heart of the cult's territory. What she finds there is far more terrifying than a group of unhinged followers. Memu, the scarred and charismatic leader, is only a man- but the monster he worships is not. Born from the ruins of a decades-old research project buried beneath a burned gas station, a creature has awakened-one that adapts, evolves, and chooses its Alpha the same way a myth chooses its god. When the beast rejects its prophet, the People of Memu face a fate more horrifying than death. As the cult collapses and the true Alpha rises, Marisa must confront a chilling truth: Some monsters don't hunt for food. They hunt for destiny. In this explosive, supernatural thriller inspired by the tones of Stephen King and James Patterson, the line between man, beast, and god blurs into a nightmare of blood, evolution, and the terrifying price of freedom. Dare to enter the woods. Dare to meet the Dog. And pray it doesn't choose you.
