Returning home, Patricia finds the town of her childhood in the grip of terror, fear, and evil as a dark force with a thirst for blood leaves a trail of mutilated bodies in its wake. Original.

From the Back Cover

More than memories await Patricia when she returns to the quiet backwoods town where she grew up. A woman strangled half to death and buried alive. Children who scampered off to play, never to return. Men and women strung up and butchered for sport. Corpses dug up and bodies found with parts missing. All this greets Patricia. All this and more... Something from the darkest heart of the night is stalking her, while the town itself seems to be cursed by a nameless evil. Lust-filled dreams fuel deadly obsessions, the bodies pile up and the blood flows. Black secrets are revealed and nightmares live...in the Backwoods.
