Book description
The nightmare begins before you sleep.... He had fled from the terrors
of his past, finding refuge in the quietness of the island. And for a
time he lived in peace. Until the 'sightings' began, visions of horror
seeping into his mind like poisonous tendrils, violent acts that were
hideously macabre, the thoughts becoming intense. He witnessed the
grotesque acts of another thing, a thing that glorified in murder and
mutilation, a monster that soon became aware of the observer within its
own mind. And relished contact. A creature that would eventually come to
the island to seek him out.... 'Guaranteed to give you nightmares' Daily
Mail Remember with fear...
