Multi-billionaire Jacob Stone has spent much of his fortune creating New Eden, a preserve in the Alaskan wilderness for creatures out of the wildest reaches of scientific speculation. Monsters caught between human and animal shape; unimagined beasts that stalk, swim and fly through a world where legend and science are one. Cryptids. Now Stone has recruited the four remaining members of Task Force E, a renegade paramilitary group exposed to and transformed by a bizarre paranormal phenomenon, one that has left them with a strange sensitivity to--and affinity for—cryptids.
