In 1930s Costa Rica, the jungle remembers its gods.
Jose de la Cruz was born into privilege-heir to a powerful family estate, raised on coffee fields and tradition. But when his grandfather dies under mysterious circumstances, Jose inherits more than land and legacy.
He inherits a mask.
For centuries, a hidden guardian known only as El Conejo has protected the valley of Juan Viñas from ancient forces buried beneath the jungle and the volcanoes beyond. When shadow spirits awaken-possessing animals, poisoning the land, and whispering through the night-Jose is forced to confront a truth older than faith, older than conquest.
As Conejo Ocho, the eighth in a secret bloodline of masked protectors, Jose must stand against colonial greed, forbidden rituals, and a witch who serves powers that should never rise again. Alongside his loyal companion Marcos, he battles not only the darkness creeping through the jungle-but the cost of becoming a symbol his people may need more than the man beneath the mask.
Conejo Ocho is a dark historical fantasy blending Latin American myth, Catholic iconography, pulp adventure, and supernatural horror-an origin story where faith, blood, and legend collide.
Perfect for readers of mythic adventure, masked heroes, and historical dark fantasy.
