THE DEVIL’S GAP
La Brecha del Diablo
A Supernatural Thriller Inspired by True Events.
Zach Cooper—charismatic surfer dude and crypto millionaire—heads to the beaches of Latin America chasing the “Next Big Wave.” But what begins as a soul-searching surf trip becomes something far stranger when he crosses paths with Ana and Klaus, a seductive and mysterious older couple with tales of lost civilizations, Spanish gold, and a mythical place where time stands still.
Ana claims the conquistadors searched for it. Klaus has the maps to prove it. What they lack is funding—until Zach’s Bitcoin wallet opens the door.
Within days, Ana assembles a makeshift a cocktail of burned-out backpackers, thrill-seekers, South African mercenaries, and cartel contacts. Their destination? The Darién Gap—an infamous, lawless stretch of rainforest on the border of Panama and Colombia. A place untouched by roads, unreached by rescue, and steeped in whispered legends. A place where maps fail, and people disappear.
Zach’s last message comes from a beach near the edge of the jungle. silence.
Regina Watts, scarred and disillusioned ex-CIA operative, knows exactly what the Gap can do. Years ago, she led a black ops team into the jungle on a mission so classified it was buried along with her dead. She was the only one who made it out—and even then, not whole. Haunted and half-forgotten, Watts is drawn back by a private bounty offered by Zach’s father, Richard Cooper.
But she doesn’t go in alone.
Joining her are James Cooper, the eldest son and pragmatic lawyer, and Mark, the neurotic middle brother with a medical kit and a history of panic attacks. Together, they follow the trail left behind by Zach’s expedition—into cartel territory, forbidden ruins, and depths none of them can imagine.
Watts warns
Even if we find him, there’s no guarantee he’s alive.
Even if he’s alive, there’s no guarantee he’s still Zach.
As the jungle closes in, their mission becomes a race against time and myth. The expedition uncovers remnants of ancient cities, glowing pools of water, impossible architecture, and signs of something watching. Something old. Something hungry. The deeper they go, the more the laws of time, memory, and identity begin to unravel.
Because the Devil’s Gap doesn’t just hide secrets—it changes them.
And no one gets out the same.
Part psychological terror and part supernatural survival thriller, THE DEVIL’S GAP is a pulse-pounding descent into Hell—where time fractures, myths breathe, and those who enter may never return.
Perfect for fans of Dean Koontz, Scott Smith, Jeff Long, Preston & Child, Nick Cutter, Michael Crichton, and Stephen King.
