About This Book

Two grieving men bond over fishing in the Catskills and discover a legendary stretch of water whose history reaches back to the construction of the reservoirs—and further, to a cosmic horror lurking beneath. John Langan's Bram Stoker Award winner is a masterwork of literary, Lovecraftian dread.
