Two centuries ago, a covert expedition following Lewis and Clark vanished into the Idaho wilderness.
They were never seen again.
Now seven students have disappeared in the same mountains—and archaeologist Michael Rempart is the only man who suspects the truth.
In his forties and dangerously compelling, Rempart carries more than academic controversy. He is the last heir of a lineage steeped in forbidden alchemy—and he knows that those who draw too near him rarely remain untouched by its shadow.
He believes the land isn’t hiding bodies.
It’s guarding a secret.
Buried beneath the forest lies a power whispered about for centuries—an alchemical force tied to immortality, legend, and something far older than recorded history. The only warning comes from a journal written in 1806 by a dying explorer who claimed he had witnessed evil made flesh.
Most dismissed his words as madness.
Rempart isn’t so sure.
The deeper he digs, the clearer it becomes: whatever was unleashed long ago was never destroyed.
It was waiting.
And it has begun to stir again.
