Detective Angus MacKinnon never talks about his cases.

Not the trucks that vanish on empty back roads.

Not the bodies that disappear without explanation.

And certainly not the strange incidents in the forests and along the coast.

Because for generations, a small number of police officers have known the truth.

Beneath Nova Scotia lies a hidden city called Rock Town.

A place where monsters run businesses, ancient laws govern the fate of the dead, and the most valuable currency in the world is a soul forged into coin.

At the center of it all sits The Coin Master, ruler of the soul-mint and the wealthiest power in the demon world.

For centuries his rule was enforced by a terrifying creation known as The Chain God, a being forged to keep the monsters in line.

Until the Coin Master betrayed him.

Buried beneath a forgotten quarry, the Chain God was meant to remain sealed forever.

In his absence, the Coin Master granted a fragment of that power to a new enforcer.

Krampus the Chain Devil — the feared Highway Demon of Nova Scotia.

But chains do not hold forever.

Now the Chain God has escaped.

Old enemies are stirring.

The Pit Queen is ready and waiting with her crawling Pit Eaters.

Industrial monsters like Propane Jack and Powerline are fighting to expand their grip on the surface world.

In the pubs of Nova Scotia, The Black Fiddler is preparing for war.

And somewhere along the rocky shores of Cape Breton, Captain Kidd is quietly loading the cannons of the Hell’s Purse.

Caught in the middle of it all are two police officers who just wanted a quiet posting.

Instead they’ve discovered a secret older than the province itself.

Because if the chains that hold the province together finally break…the monsters won’t stay underground.

And the new recruit is about to learn why the first rule of Rock Town is:

Eat the Rookies.
