But from the moment the plane lands, the plan goes to pieces. The lab's scientists are missing, the compound is a shamble, and it looks like something enormous has crushed the perimeter fence. Even worse, Destro isn't the only one after this prehistoric prize. Before Grant and the others solve the destroyed lab's mysteries, Russian soldiers arrive. Destro's group is forced to flee into the surrounding forests, where killer mammoths lurk, ready to hunt more human prey. Trapped between the twin tips of Russian bayonets and mammoth tusks, who among them will survive and escape Mammoth Island?
