There's something terrible in the woods behind the bucolic farm in the North Georgia Mountains. No one knows what it is, but each time the farm changes ownership, tragedy ensues. A local hunter is mauled beyond recognition. A young wife slowly descends into madness. A trained athlete dies a horrifying death. Now the farm has once again changed hands, and Sheriff Randal Hayes, with the help of big-game hunter Byron Wilkes, is determined to find-and to kill-the thing in the woods before it can destroy the new owner and his family. But how do you find something as elusive as the wind? How do you stop the unstoppable?The Dark Woods Trilogy includes The Dark Woods (a novelette), "The Runner" (a story), and Master of Fright (a novelette). While each tale is also sold separately, they have been combined in this volume with but minor revisions from the originals.
