THE LOCH NESS ACCORD Book Two of A Tale of the Dogman by Adrian Cave --- PREVIOUSLY IN THE DOGMAN SERIES: In THE PLUCKLEY CONVERGENCE, Alex Monroe became the first Tallyman— a human bridge between species—when he negotiated the ground-breaking treaty between humanity and the Dogmen of Britain. The Accord proved that monsters and humans could coexist. That negotiation could triumph over extermination. That the impossible could become possible. But the Dogmen were mammalian. Comprehensible. Bound by territory and pack loyalty. What happens when the monster is too alien to understand? When negotiation requires becoming what you're negotiating with? When the cost of coexistence is humanity itself? Six months after Pluckley, Alex Monroe travels to Scotland to investigate disappearances near Loch Ness. What he discovers challenges everything he learned from the Dogmen: an entity so ancient and alien that communication may be impossible—and the 18th-century village that tried to make peace with it vanished overnight. All 172 people. Gone without a trace. Some walked into the water singing. None ever returned. Now the calling has begun again. And this time, Alex Monroe might not come back either. --- THE LOCH NESS ACCORD Where the first Accord ended, the second begins. And what begins in the deep water may never surface again. --- "Some things can't be reasoned with. Some things can't be understood. Some things just call you home to the cold and the dark. And you go. Smiling. Because it's beautiful. Because you finally understand. Because you're not alone anymore. And that's the horror of it." — Dr. Sarah Chen, two days before transformation
