Publisher's Synopsis
A DEADLY ACCIDENT
Three boys die in a mysterious car crash in a small rural town. Later that night, people living nearby begin disappearing. One at a time. Rumors spread and townspeople claim there is a rational explanation. But the seemingly normal village has a haunted past: missing children, doors locked at sunset, and whispers about a strange creature in the woods. When reporter Robert Garrahan tries to find an explanation, he discovers that he may be the next to disappear and the extent of Morris's horrific history is finally revealed."BEHEMOTH is old-school gothic horror and historical horror mixed with modern-world superstitions and prejudices and that makes things that much more chilling. Newquist has created a fine horror novel that dares to be called literary/historical fiction and entertains the reader from start to finish." THE HORROR REVIEW"Well, folks - buckle up, because this one is a doozy. BEHEMOTH is a thriller-style creature feature . . . Newquist is a great writer, his words vividly stoking the imagination." CEMETERY DANCE"One of the best books I've read in a very long time. Sent chills up my spine to where I thought I might need a priest . . ." HORRORBOUND REVIEW"The stuff of biblical, almost Lovecraftian horror . . . HP Newquist knows monsters well." HELLNOTES REVIEW
