From publisher blurb:
In the spring of 1876, a small, frightened band of Kwatáwa Indians arrives at Fort Braxton, a remote, windblown and isolated U.S. Army outpost nestled against the bluffs of the southwestern plains. They bring tales of a skull-headed demon riding a giant jaguar who appears beneath the moon and slays his victims with a curved obsidian longsword. The demon leaves the bodies with their hearts removed and their faces carved in terror. The Kwatáwa call it “Iztac Xolotl”—the White Demon Dog—a name given by an old missionary who came through generations ago warning of an ancient, forgotten evil that would soon return.
The fort’s commander, Captain Elias Carrington, dismissed the stories as superstition, but the mutilated corpses troubled him enough to request outside help. The commander summoned the Heroes to investigate and stop the killings. As they dig deeper, they uncover a hidden Aztec cult attempting to resurrect an ancient priest-king through ritual sacrifice. Iztac Xolotl is no myth—it’s their enforcer, animated by unholy rites.
This Weird West scenario mixes historical folklore, supernatural horror, and frontier grit into a tense investigative adventure. Good luck facing this new terror of the plains!
