More than a hundred years have passed since the disappearance of the Grand Island lighthouse keeper and his wife. To add to the mystery the body of the assistant keeper turned up mutilated and adrift in a boat on Lake Superior with no clue as to who or what put him there. The new tenants of the long-abandoned lighthouse have no idea a horrific murder mystery lies hidden within the bowels of their new home. High atop the cliffs of Grand Island, Travis Roster finds himself cornered, and face to face with a terrifying monster of legends. An enormous cat-like creature adorned with copper scales, a serpentine body and footlong fangs glistening with the blood of its victims. The water panther, known as Mishipeshu by the Anishinaabe people, resides in the depths of Lake Superior protecting her copper. She is angry and seeks vengeance on those who have failed to heed her warnings. Making circumstances even more dire is the fact the gargantuan lynx is a trivial problem compared to the other terrors lying in wait for the Roster family. Travis and his family have uncovered a bunker hidden far below the surface of Grand Island and in doing so they also uncovered the remains of the lighthouse keeper and his wife, missing for nearly one hundred years, along with a parasite hell bent on humanity's destruction. With death around every corner and an ever-changing landscape, escaping the island has become both imperative and impossible.
