The White Werewolf
A team hunts a salt-trapped monster in Detroit beneath the red moon.
The narrative centers on Dr. Jimmy Harlen, Hauck, and Sveta working together to prevent a catastrophe. Their objective is to stop the Dhole, a creature residing 1400 feet down in Detroit's largest salt mine. The entity hibernates within the salt but wakes during red moon nights to send forth an army of killers. What starts as a hunt for a single werewolf uncovers a secret that endangers the city and potentially the whole world. Moore uses this premise to explore themes of hidden dangers beneath familiar landscapes.
The story is set in Detroit, drawing on American urban folklore and werewolf traditions. It places supernatural horror within the context of a major US city's industrial infrastructure, specifically utilizing the imagery of deep underground salt mines as a prison for ancient evil.
