About this ebook
With the approach of winter over Monks Hood, Colorado, something elsesomething much coldergrows within the mountain valley community. A malevolent presence moves with the shadows and touches the lives of all who inhabit the small ranching town on the outskirts of the Routt National Forest.
Linda Westcotts arrival in Monks Hood is heralded by the death of her husband. She has come to restore balance to the lives of her children, in the serenity of the Colorado Mountains. The peace she seeks, however, is disrupted by a series of inter-connecting events which strike at the core of Monks Hoods very foundation.
As the tendrils of circumstance close in about her, Linda Westcott finds herself trapped in the influence of an evil which ultimately threatens to purge Monks Hood of all life. Linda must find the strength to overcome her own fears and doubts, if she is to survive and protect her children from an entity defined by hatred, rage and revenge.
About the author
My name is John Fisk and I was born in Providence, Rhode Island on June 1, 1970. I have been a resident of Saint Joseph, Missouri for more than twenty years and I am a thirteen year employee with the Missouri State Department of Corrections. I am the proud father of two wonderful and intelligent children and this marks my first published work of fiction. Several years of research into the paranormal have gone into this book, as has my own particular fascination with psychology and the idiosyncrasies which make us tick as people. I have spent a great deal of my life studying contemporary and classical prose, in an attempt to find a niche of technique that I am comfortable with and can grow with as I develop my storytelling ability. I hope you find this distraction from your valuable time worthwhile and satisfying as I have writing it.
