Macaque Attack

When a movie crew abandoned thirty-seven crab-eating macaques in the Florida Everglades decades ago, the local residents of Cypress Grove thought they'd gained harmless tourist attractions. They were wrong. Dr. McKenna Dubrow, the town's veterinarian, discovers the horrifying truth when the macaques begin exhibiting unprecedented intelligence-using tools, coordinating attacks, and leaving behind cryptic symbols that suggest something far more sinister than natural evolution. How do you fight an enemy that learns from every encounter, adapts to every strategy, and thinks three moves ahead? As the macaques systematically isolate Cypress Grove, McKenna realizes these creatures harbor dark secrets about their true origins. With the town under siege and escape routes blocked, she must protect her teenage daughter while uncovering a conspiracy that reaches back decades. But the deeper she digs, the more she realizes that what's happening in Cypress Grove was no accident. Something changed these animals. Something that was never meant to be unleashed. In a world where the line between civilization and savagery dissolves, who is really the apex predator? = = = "Staci Layne Wilson writes a chilling vision of intelligence unleashed and humanity's darkest experiments coming home to roost in the most terrifying way possible."-Gloom "A masterpiece of scientific horror that will make you question every assumption about intelligence, evolution, and our place in the natural order."-HorrorLit Podcast
