The Devil's Colony

By Bill Schweigart
The Devil's Colony by Bill Schweigart digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The greatest monster is man. From the author of The Beast of Barcroft and Northwoods comes a chilling descent into the depths of horror and human depravity.
 
Ben McKelvie had a good job, a nice house, a beautiful fiancée . . . until a bloodthirsty shapeshifter took everything away. Ever since, he’s been chasing supernatural phenomena all across the country, aided by dedicated zoologist Lindsay Clark and wealthy cryptozoologist Richard Severance.
 
Now they face their deadliest challenge yet. In the New Jersey Pine Barrens, a man named Henry Drexler operates a private compound called Välkommen, which is Swedish for “welcome.” Indeed, Drexler welcomes all visitors—so long as they’re racists, neo-Nazis, or otherwise in cahoots with the alt-right. But Drexler is no mere Hitler wannabe. Once he was Severance’s mentor, and his research may well have summoned a monster to the Pine Barrens.
 
To find out the truth, Ben and Lindsay must enter the camp incognito. There, under the watchful eyes of Drexler’s bodyguards and sociopathic son, they will learn that the most dangerous beasts lurk in the human heart.

Thinking Face“definitely the weakest link in the trilogy but that's not saying much as it's still a great book just different from the rest instead of literal monsters showing the monster in humans I also agree with one reviewer either here or on audible on why is Lindsey a straight up womanizer and it's pointed out constantly that she's gay and apparently every woman the party meets is gay too and wants her like some form of Femme-adonis it's strange especially with the character she ends up with had a possibile relationship with another character but thats a minimal gripe not bad just an odd choice all in all the 2nd was the best of the trilogy and this was a decent conclusion but I wanted more hope Bill writes more someday”
