Bishop and his wife Angela traded the concrete jungle of Chicago for the pine forests of Montana, but Apex Valley has no intention of letting them go.
Deep in the wilderness, the laws of nature have been rewritten. Monstrous birds mimic human cries from the canopy. Leaf-shaped predators hunt in dark glades. And in the shadows, creatures with blinking red tags creep and scurry—counting down to something lethal.

As the “tags” begin to blink faster, Bishop realizes they aren’t just fighting for their lives—they’re the last line of defense before an ecological nightmare goes global.
