THE MAN BEHIND THE MASK IS BACKIn New Jersey in 1957 a little boy named Joshua Ian Hodder drowned in the waters of Diamond Lake while the camp counselors charged with watching him made love. His distraught mother slaughtered nine young people in revenge before she was herself slain. Then, somehow, Joshua returned. Driven to kill by a seemingly unending and unreasoning rage, Joshua has spilled enough blood to lap the shores of Diamond Lake.
His savage crimes are legendary and span two decades. Twelve times he has been stopped, only to return. Now he is hunting down those few who have managed to defeat him, and with each new kill, he is growing stronger. Joshua's long estranged father steps out of the past to stand against his son with the last survivors; a pair of FBI agents tasked with hunting him down, a young telekinetic just coming into her own power, an FX artist who had thought all that bloodshed was behind him, an ex-heroin addict who last saw the face of evil in the sewers under Manhattan, a woman whose first encounter with Joshua in the woods at sixteen left her mind shattered, and Joshua's own niece, trained as a human weapon by an obsessive bounty hunter whose clash with the killer left him wheelchair-bound, for according to legend, only by a Hodder may he die..
