The Kiamichi Project
After losing her sister in a brutal attack as a teenager, Scout Rourke agrees to lead a team in the capture of a war machine that may or may not be linked to a legendary creature. In Scout’s heart, she is convinced she is hunting the same massive monster that shredded her sister before Rourke’s horrified eyes decades before.
An unidentified killer has been leaving a trail of bodies in its wake. Leading the mercenary team in the hunt for the creature gives Scout the perfect opportunity for the vengeance she vowed after her sister’s death.
Scout’s military toughness combined with her doctorate in cryptozoology – the study of and search for animals that fall outside of contemporary zoological categories – means she has both the brawn and the brains to get the job done and exact revenge!
But, it turns out that the war machine is actually a Killer Sasquatch under the control of a U.S. special weapons program. The hunters quickly become the hunted in this epic military twist on the Big Foot myth.
