As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainiers eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined .

until now.

But the journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the towns bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing - and too earth-shattering in its implications - to be forgotten.

In these pages, Max Brooks brings Kates extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the beasts behind it, once thought legendary but now known to be terrifyingly real.

Kates is a tale of unexpected strength and resilience, of humanitys defiance in the face of a terrible predators gaze, and inevitably, of savagery and death.

Yet it is also far more than that.

Because if what Kate Holland saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible.

We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us - and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity.

Part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it - and like none youve ever read before.
