Golden, CO, 31st May 2023, ZEX PR WIRE, Dan Durkee, the author of “Prey,” touched upon many themes with his book. Despite being horror fiction, the story has had readers going through a swirl of emotions because of the sense of attachment that is formed with the characters.

Centering around Nick Traverse and his adopted son, Chris, with Down’s Syndrome, the gripping tale is about a monstrous being that dwells within the depths of the ocean.

Nick and Chris live in Ft. Lupton, a small town in New England, popular for being known as the perfect spot to catch fish. Nick and Chris lead a hardworking yet fulfilling life filled with love.

They both take on odd jobs to make ends meet. Although they aren’t well-off and have the luxury of taking a break, they are content with each other’s company. And Nick can go to any length to keep Chris happy and safe.

Although most locals are kind to Chris, not everyone holds the same sentiment despite him being intelligent and kind. Being overly protective of Chris, Nick had gotten into many fights to defend him on more occasions than one. Despite not being father and son by blood, their bond is far stronger. But things take a twist when they take on a job to assist with hunting the frightening creature that has claimed many lives.
