A woman trapped on a mountain attempts to survive more than one kind of monster, in a dread-inducing horror novel from the national bestselling author Christina Henry.
Mattie can't remember a time before she and William lived alone on a mountain together. She must never make him upset. But when Mattie discovers the mutilated body of a fox in the woods, she realizes that they're not alone after all.
There's something in the woods that wasn't there before, something that makes strange cries in the night, something with sharp teeth and claws.
When three strangers appear on the mountaintop looking for the creature in the woods, Mattie knows their presence will anger William. Terrible things happen when William is angry.
My Review:
I really enjoyed reading this book! It was such a fantastic read, with a mix of traditional thriller with her "husband" having an anger problem, and whatever is in the woods. And I loved these two threats, and watching Mattie deal with the both of them!
Mattie has lived a harsh life with William, and the abuse that he does to her is pretty awful, for their supposed marriage. We don't get a lot of an explanation for all this at first, bur when we do find out about how it all started, man, that hurt!
The monster in the woods, that just ramped up the tension. With things already being tense with Mattie's interactions with a stranger, the monster hunting them just adds to the atmosphere, and I just couldn't put down this book!
I do get that not having answers keeps the tension high, but C.J, and his friends came up because they love learning about strange creatures. So you'd think that one of them would've figured out a bit ore than did did, just so we would learn a little more.
Loved reading this book, and I can't wait to read more Christina Henry books!
