The Real Science Behind My Bigfoot Thriller: Hominid

Bigfoot. Sasquatch. That towering, elusive creature has fascinated the public for generations. But what if the legend had roots in reality? And what if proving its existence came with a cost no one was ready to pay?

In my novel Hominid, I didn’t set out to write fantasy—I set out to write a Bigfoot thriller grounded in real-world investigation, motive, and consequence.

🔍 A Bigfoot Thriller Built on Real Research

With a doctorate in criminology, my instinct is to explore how people behave under pressure—what drives them to protect, expose, or exploit what they discover. That lens shaped the world of Hominid, where Dr. Tess Brannick is caught between the thrill of uncovering a legend and the threat posed by those who would weaponize it.

I pored over historical sightings, scientific skepticism, and cultural fascination. While some events in the book are fictionalized, they’re based on decades of speculation and scattered physical “evidence.” The “Fact or Fiction” section in the novel dives deeper into those inspirations—and separates myth from invention.

🧠 Where Fact, Fiction, and Morality Collide

The question behind Hominid isn’t just “Could Bigfoot exist?” but “What would we do if we found it?” For Tess, the answer becomes personal—and dangerous. In a world where science, ambition, and legacy are often at odds, the stakes go far beyond discovery.

📘 What if discovering the truth meant sacrificing a life—maybe even your own?

Step into Hominid, a gripping Bigfoot thriller where one woman must choose between exposing a legend and protecting it—before ambition turns discovery into destruction.
