It's 1980, and people have gone missing from a sleepy, rural town in south Georgia. No one knows why or how. But shortly after teenaged photographer Denver Stow befriends an unusual creature in a nearby forest preserve, clues begin to appear. Unfortunately for Denver, the clues all seem to point to him. The only one who knows he isn't responsible is his girlfriend, Jinks, though she's been a target, too. Denver's easy-going life in high school morphs into a world of thugs and lowlifes after his graduation. And if dealing with gangsters wasn't bad enough, he discovers a monster lurking in the woods behind his house with which his furry little companion shares a terrible secret. Who are these creatures, and where did they come from? Who's responsible for all the missing people? Can Denver and his girlfriend survive long enough to find the answers?
