Near the Bone
ByPublisher Description
A woman trapped on a mountain attempts to survive more than one kind of monster, in a dread-inducing horror novel from the national bestselling author Christina Henry.
Mattie can't remember a time before she and William lived alone on a mountain together. She must never make him upset. But when Mattie discovers the mutilated body of a fox in the woods, she realizes that they’re not alone after all.
There’s something in the woods that wasn’t there before, something that makes strange cries in the night, something with sharp teeth and claws.
When three strangers appear on the mountaintop looking for the creature in the woods, Mattie knows their presence will anger William. Terrible things happen when William is angry.

“I’d give it 5 stars but it ended very abruptly, but after chapter 10 it was very hard to put down.”“I was in the market for a b-horror movie in book form and found it! I throughly enjoyed this book and all the aspects of it. In you have monster and human monsters too. If you want a no think read this is the book for you!”
