on the plot:
As more attacks occur, Max begins to investigate the possibility of a cryptid, a creature not recognized by science. His investigations lead him to confront the town's secrets and the possibility that a cult may be involved in the attacks.
Max is also struggling with personal demons, including alcoholism and the fallout from a failed relationship, which threaten to derail his investigation. However, his determination to solve the case and expose the truth drives him forward.
As the attacks continue, Max teams up with local biologist Dr. Elena Diaz, who shares his belief that something more is going on. They set out to capture evidence and gather support for their theory, but not everyone in the town is on their side.
The tension mounts as Max and Elena's investigation uncovers evidence of a dangerous and elusive cryptid. But when Max discovers the identity of the creature, the deadly truth is more shocking and disturbing than he ever could have anticipated.
Can Max and Elena stop the cryptid before it claims more victims, or will the town's dark secrets be buried forever?
