Crota

It is called Crota...the Bram Stoker Award-winning first novel by Owl Goingback. Brimming with originality and feverish suspense, it is the kind of tale told around the crackling coals of a moonlit campfire. A mystical mixture of Native American legend and modern American terror that has become one of the most acclaimed debuts of the year.

It is called Crota...and it has awakened. Sheriff Skip Harding is called out to investigate a double homicide unlike any he has seen before: the bodies are torn to pieces in the woods. Some think it's a bear. But others whisper something different. It's the Crota, they say. The great beast of legend that one day will reawaken. And that day has arrived....
