Bobby Clark is a small city detective in late 1950’s Mason-Barrie, Pennsylvania. He is still trying to drown out the nightmare of last year’s calamitous encounter with Willard Strickland by ingesting generous doses of morphine from his trusty silver flask. His fateful encounter with Strickland in the cabin has left his spirits, not to mention his back, in tatters. Aided by his loyal, but stubborn partner, Hank Haynes, and his decidedly mysterious psychiatrist, Dr. Claire Joffre, Bobby tries to ease his way back into the job. But on his first day back on the force, he is confronted with the possibility that Strickland AKA the regionally infamous Lovebirds’ Killer may not have died in that cabin after all. In fact, startling evidence suggests the serial killer have morphed into something far more dangerous and primal. At the first crime scene, Bobby discovers the newest victim displays the slash wounds of a hideous monster, possibly a werewolf. Equally jarring, is the blue baby soother placed in the corpse’s mouth indicating the calling card of his nemesis. As the case progresses, the young detective dimly begins to suspect that some shadowy government entity may have in fact created that rampaging monster. Can Bobby Clark, and his partner Hank, survive the Lovebird’s renewed campaign long enough to get some answers? Even if they escape with their lives, will they be able to deal with the terrible consequences about what they discover?
An homage to monster movies of yesteryear, the reading public is introduced to a flawed, but durable hero in Bobby Clark.
