In 1891 a mine collapsed into itself. What was the dark substance found 666 feet underground? Blending modern horror- historical fact and Western lore- Scott Snyder and Dan Panosian have created a uniquely terrifying thriller with Canary. During the final days of the Gold Rush- one mining company in Colorado- pulled up radioactive Uranium- and then the mine then collapsed in on itself. Legends sprung up about the mine being cursed or even haunted. Now the Frontier is closed- the gold and silver mines have dried up. The country is becoming 'civilized-' and yet- in one stretch of the Rocky Mountains- a terrifying- new kind of violence is suddenly emerging. Random killings. People going mad and murdering neighbors- classmates without real cause. When a schoolboy kills his teacher with a hatchet- a famous federal marshal named Azrael William Holt is called in to investigate the killings. What hea brilliant young geologistis stranger and more horrifying than anything they could have ever imagined.
