December 1915. The remote village of Sankebetsu, nestled deep in the snowy wilderness of Hokkaidō, Japan, is preparing for another harsh winter. The settlers, hardworking and isolated, are no strangers to the dangers of the wild. But nothing could prepare them for the nightmare that is about to descend upon them.

A massive brown bear, unnaturally large and terrifyingly intelligent, begins stalking the village. At first, it is merely a shadow-a fleeting presence at the edge of the forest, watching. But soon, the monster reveals its true nature. When the men of the village leave to work, the beast returns to strike with brutal force, slaughtering women and children in an attack so horrifying that it shakes the survivors to their core.

As the villagers scramble for safety, failed hunts and gruesome discoveries only deepen the terror. Traps fail, and the bear seems to be toying with them, always one step ahead. In desperation, the settlers call upon Yamamoto Heikichi, a veteran bear hunter with a grim history of tracking man-eaters. But even he knows that this creature is something far more dangerous than any he has faced before.

With dwindling supplies, growing paranoia, and the looming presence of the unstoppable beast, the villagers must make their final stand. Will they survive the wrath of the Beast of Sankebetsu, or will the snow-covered land be forever stained with their blood?

Based on the terrifying true story, The Beast of Sankebetsu is a harrowing historical horror novel that recounts one of Japan's most infamous animal attacks. Told through the eyes of survivors, hunters, and those who would never escape the nightmare, this novel captures the raw fear and desperate fight for survival against nature's most relentless predator.
