In the early '90s, cable TV is king—and something ancient is watching from the static. Only Hunky, the reclusive son of the field office’s very first hunter, takes its threat seriously. And when Hunky notices primordial evil brewing at an evangelical theme park in the Florida Everglades, he may be the only one who can save the beautiful young woman named Charity caught in the middle of it all…

Don’t miss THE DEPARTMENT OF TRUTH’s most savage story arc yet, as only TYNION and TEMPLESMITH can tell it!
