Dread

Mired in the fog and rain forests of the Pacific Northwest lies Kolbenz Harbor, a decaying logging town now mostly known for the disappearance of one of its children: Annie Lamb. For ten years the case has been cold, and Annie assumed dead, with no body or suspects ever found. Detective Ellie Harding has now taken over the case from her longtime partner Roy Harper, but never expected that a vague lead would lead them to discover Annie as the only surviving victim at the scene of a ritualistic multiple homicide by sadistic killers... Who are also found dead at the crime scene. With the traumatized and unstable Annie rescued and a new investigation opened, Ellie's life and anxiety are pushed to the brink by the intense demands of the case and her fractured life at home. As the detectives' search intensifies and suggests more sinister and terrifying possibilities, Ellie and Roy spiral downward as they uncover an unimaginable and horrifying truth about Annie's childhood that will lead them into the dark woods surrounding Kolbenz, and forever leave them with an inescapable feeling of dread. A new novel of suspense and terror by G. A. Harley with all the mystery of a crime thriller and the slow build of tension into a horror story, Dread will lead the reader to a place of fear they will never expect coming.
