Something ancient stirs beneath Meadowvale. Something hungry.
Wildlife biologist Stella Hartley returns to her hometown after a career-ending scandal, seeking the quiet life she once knew. What she finds instead are dead rabbits drained of blood.
Then, the first human victim appears, and Stella discovers a horrifying truth: beneath her quiet hometown, an ancient hunger has awakened. Every hundred years, it transforms ordinary rabbits into blood-drinking killers that hunt with terrifying intelligence.
As the creatures swarm the town and her childhood friend Vincent is bitten, Stella finds herself at the center of a disturbing legacy.
What waits beneath Meadowvale wants more than she expects, and the price of saving everyone she loves may be higher than she’s willing to pay.
The hunger remembers. The town forgets.
And time is running out.
