Something is killing the livestock around the community of Farmville, Arkansas, bringing fear and turmoil to the region. Emotions run high as the report comes to light of a large, man-like creature along the Ouachita River. Out of desperation, a bounty is posted before the sighting can be verified. The description bears a strong resemblance to Hank Baker's giant friend who lives in the woods near the river. The summer of 1925 has been anything but boring for Hank and his friends. In this third book of the Arkansas Oil Days Collection, Hank, Daniel, Beth Ann, and Abraham join their efforts in a race against time to save their friend from certain death and prove his innocence. Just as the truth begins to offer hope, the big man disappears. Is the large creature accused of killing the area's livestock Mr. Morgan? Or is something more dangerous lurking in the shadows?
