For millions of years, it drifted through space. For millions of years, it has slept. For millions of years, it dreamt of carnage. A violent predator, it has been crafted for slaughter.



Its teeth can dice flesh and bone with minimal effort; its claws can tear through any obstacle and reduce flesh to pulp; the armor scales covering its body can deflect fifty-caliber bullets; and it has a malice to put all of these tools to their maximum potential.



Now, it has awakened.



When Armand Tower came to the quiet town of McClellen, Michigan, he expected it to be a run of the mill experience. Specialized in locating meteorite fragments, he has seen all sorts of celestial objects, including objects from outside the solar system.



But nothing could have prepared him for this.



Animals are found dead, people mysteriously disappear, and a putrid odor fills the forest. As Armand investigates further, he uncovers the horrible truth. What has crash-landed in the backwoods of McClellen was not rock, but a Saurian creature hellbent on bloodshed.



With the body count steadily rising, Armand must team up with a pair of young resort employees, a rusty small-town police chief, and a lunatic biker to stop the menace.
