Even today, in a certain sleepy Pennsylvania village, they talk of the events of that summer in which a nameless Thing came to trouble the countryside, bringing terror and death with it. They tell of ghosts that walked, of men found dead with the mark of no known creature upon their throats, of women who screamed at twilight, and of a silver bullet which finally found its mark.
It is an exciting, eerie tale which Harper Williams unfolds in The Thing in the Woods, a story in which modern folk and ancient mysteries play their part. What the Thing really was and how it came to be discovered is the theme of a mystery story which will puzzle and entertain lovers of this type of fiction.
