The Cause

Gibbs Van Zant is about to crossover to a perilous territory, the likes he'd never seen before traveling the world--The Superstition Mountains of southwest Arizona. Filled with legends, fables and long-lost tales, a rare and horrifying creature is said to still exist within the lava formed summits.-- A relentless entity few have ever heard of. About to embark inside a range he knew nothing about, the avid hiker and a newfound group of friends (including a possible love-interest) will soon enter the creatures realm, clueless to what horror lies deep inside. Keeping the mysterious and deadly beasts top secret since the 1950's, a highly-classified government agency known only as D.E.C. is responsible for killing off the enigma man-eaters before the crawlies can spread their chaos to other regions, possibly even the world? Hoping to finally wipe the vile predators from the face of the earth, the rogue squad of misfit soldiers use their advanced weaponry to battle the slashing terrors, risking their lives to exterminate each and every one. Able to arise from their cave dwellings when only skies turn black with desert rain, the starve driven creatures hunt down anything that roams the vast wilds, desperate to fill their aching stomachs. Soon, soldiers and civilians will come face to face with the clawed nightmares, as D.E.C.'s latest mission to retrieve specimens unfolds within a monsoon storm over the lava-red pinnacles.
