I'm Paul Solotarov, and for 33 years I've written for Rolling Stone magazine. I go after racist cops who shoot and kill unarmed black kids. I investigate neo Nazis bent on genocide and social media tech lords who look the other way while the cartels poison children on their platforms. When you write those kinds of stories, one after another, you build a layer of callous around your heart. But this story broke the skin and will not give me peace. I keep hearing the voices of girls who warn the cops about a demon, a hunter of girls hiding in the woods. In 2021, I'd have laughed in your face if you'd asked me about the devil. But soon, very soon, you'll know what I know. That the devil is real and walks among us. From lava for good. This is the devil's quar.
