The Giant Claw background

The Giant Claw

A behemoth of a bird, with supersonic velocity, ravages the planet, unleashing devastation on humanity and its built environment.

Electronics engineer Mitch MacAfee witnesses a massive UFO while flying a plane, prompting the Air Force to scramble jets for investigation. Despite no radar detection, one jet goes missing, and MacAfee is initially dismissed as a crackpot. However, subsequent incidents and disappearances convince authorities of the threat's reality.
