Holland's windmills were once vital to protect the lowlands from flooding and from something else... something that lived in the polder, the lands protected by Holland's dikes. Fifteen years ago, Arjan van den Berg uncovered the polderbeest just before it awakened. As the storms raged and the windmills struggled to drain the polder, the polderbeest awakened and raged. Moving beneath the waters, it struck again and again. Its fury cost Arjan dearly, but it went to ground again. Now as the storms rage again, Arjan and polderbeest prepare to meet again.
From the author of Kachina and The Man Who Killed Edgar Allan Poe, comes a new monster and nightmare.
