A former CIA operative investigates global disappearances linked to a single ancient entity.
Dr. Phyllis DeFalco shifts from academic study back to active duty when she identifies a pattern in worldwide missing persons cases. She finds that cultural myths about monsters are actually descriptions of one intelligent force. This entity observes human responses and adapts its methods accordingly. The team must determine if the legends were meant to explain fear or to warn humanity. The narrative tension rises as the entity begins to breach the barrier between worlds. DeFalco confronts her past and the partner she never forgot while racing to stop a crossing that could erase the boundary forever.
The story draws on traditions from South Carolina, China, Europe, and Africa. It references specific entities like the Boo Hag and the jiangshi. The setting spans Rome, Lagos, Hong Kong, and coastal South Carolina, connecting disparate cultures through a shared supernatural threat.
