The job was as challenging and exciting as any high school senior could hope for: Pete Tyler would cook meth for his Uncle Kevin while his cousin Scott hunted for mushrooms to provide cover for their time in the woods. The excitement turns to terror, however, when Scott vanishes in the forest near Maanberg Springs. This isn’t a simple matter of search and rescue. Uncle Kevin is lethally determined to keep the drug lab a secret, and Scott’s father, Dan, is ready to use violence to learn what happened to his son.

When the reclusive Maanberg Society invites Pete to join their retreat for troubled youths, Pete sees a chance to escape his uncles. Maanberg may also hold the answer to Scott’s disappearance if Pete can play its games and solve its mysteries. He won’t be playing those games alone, though; five more kids, drawn by the organization’s promise of a bright future, are caught in the Maanberg Elders’ machinations.
Time is running out. An ancient and alien evil has designs on them all.

With blood we open the door!

Through sacrifice we know the Gray God!
