Review
"Smith writes with a brisk intensity that goes for the throat." Scott Nicholson, author of Liquid Fear
Product Description
In Elijah, high in the Carolina mountains, police officer Frances Jennings is drawn into a mystery involving several missing persons and the return of local matriarch Hester Keener. While Frances battles city fathers over her position as Elijah's first female officer, her boyfriend is seduced by the power that emanates from The Crag, the peak that dominates Elijah, by his attraction for that place and for Hester's young heir. What dark forces are at play? Who, or what, is the twisted form called "Hissmelina"? Frances peels away the layers of darkness to find an answer she may not wish to know.

From the author of THE FLOCK (Tor-Forge Books) and THE LIVING END (Severed Press) comes HISSMELINA, a modern novel of Lovecraftian horror.
