In this action-packed Hellboy novel, the iconic demon detective faces ancient evil in the Himalayas, where myth, monsters, and dark secrets collide in a high-stakes paranormal adventure.

A top agent for the Bureau for Paranormal Research and Defense, Hellboy is used to confronting the unknown—but this time, the past may be his greatest enemy.

When archaeologist Anastasia Bransfield—Hellboy’s former lover—uncovers the legendary Dragon King Pool, believed to be the lair of a long-dormant dragon, her discovery unleashes a series of terrifying events. Strange creatures begin to stalk the dig site, sabotage threatens the expedition, and a child vanishes without a trace.

Drawn into the mystery, Hellboy must battle supernatural forces rooted in ancient legend while navigating unresolved feelings for Anastasia. As the truth behind the Dragon King emerges, he faces a deadly confrontation that could awaken a power long thought buried.

Blending folklore, horror, and pulse-pounding action, this gripping adventure expands the Hellboy universe with monsters, mythology, and a hero who punches first and asks questions later.
