When a sink hole opens up near the Australian outback town of Pintalba, it uncovers a pristine cave system. Sam joins an expedition to explore the subterranean passages as paramedic support, hoping to remain unneeded at base camp. But, when one of the cavers is injured, he must overcome paralyzing claustrophobia to dive pitch-black waters and squeeze through the bowels of the earth. Soon he will find there are fates worse than being buried alive, for in the abandoned mines and caves beneath Pintalba, there are ravenous teeth in the dark.

When a man is slaughtered on the slopes of a new ski-resort, his violent death catches the attention of Agent Rylan of the Cryptid Investigation Unit. Unbeknownst to staff and tourists, the resort’s built inside the territory of a savage beast, a predator with hundreds of years hunting experience. Decorated soldier Eoin Carter is new to Rylan’s team. Jaded and scarred from years of war, he will be introduced to an entirely different battle. As the creatures emerge from hibernation hungry and ready to feed, Rylan will divulge a secret.

Researchers have achieved the impossible, resurrecting the wolf-like Tasmanian thylacine. But is it the same animal of old? The creature’s genome has been altered, creating a hybrid the size of a lion with pack-hunting instincts. Agent Rylan of the Cryptid Investigation Unit is invited to the remote facility to witness their success, and soon discovers a silent partner with ulterior motives. Scarpoint, a private military company, intends to use the hybrid as a covert weapon. To stop Scarpoint, Agents Rylan and Carter must overcome a pack of trained beasts, backed by a ruthless mercenary force.

Ein Erdrutsch im australischen Outback fördert Unglaubliches zutage – ein uraltes, unversehrt gebliebenes Höhlensystem. Um die unterirdischen Gänge zu erkunden, wird ein Forscherteam zusammengestellt, dem sich auch der an Klaustrophobie leidende Sam anschließt – in der Hoffnung, als Sanitäter das Basislager nicht verlassen zu müssen. Es dauert jedoch nicht lange, bis einer der Forscher verletzt wird und Sam in die pechschwarzen Tiefen hinabtauchen muss. Dort, in den dunklen Eingeweiden der Erde, muss sich Sam aber nicht nur seinen inneren Ängsten, sondern auch einer sehr realen Gefahr stellen.
