America was not empty when the war ended.
Founded in the shadow of the Civil War, Elijah Red's Monster Hunting Company tells the hidden history of a secret organization tasked with confronting the things progress was never meant to disturb. From forests and rivers to swamps, canyons, and forgotten lands, the Hunters face creatures older than the nation itself-some violent, some intelligent, and some watching rather than attacking.
What begins as a mission to eradicate the unknown slowly becomes something far more dangerous: learning when not to fight.
Spanning decades of blood, silence, and hard-earned restraint, this collection of short stories blends frontier horror, cryptid folklore, and dark historical myth. Each hunt reveals a truth America refuses to acknowledge-
Not all monsters are invaders.
Some are guardians.
And some awaken only when mankind forgets its place.
Progress leaves scars. The land remembers.
