Riverwatch (ePub)

Nominated for both the International Horror Guild Award and the Bram Stoker Award for Best First Novel in 2001



IT HAS WAITED....

When Jake Caruso and his construction team find a hidden tunnel in the cellar of the old Blake mansion in the sleepy hamlet of Harrington Falls, Jake can't wait to explore its depths.



IT HAS HUNGERED....

There, he finds an even greater mystery: a stone chamber that's been covered up for hundreds of years -- sealed shut bysome long-forgotten warden.



IT HAS BEEN UNLEASHED!

When the ancient seal is broken, a reign of terror and death consumes the town's residents. Something is stalking them -- something that strikes in the darkness without warning or mercy, leaving a trail of innocent blood in its wake -- and Jake comes to realize the nightmarish truth of what he has set free. It is an evil born of ages past. A creature of eternal bloodlust. And it has risen to continue its endless slaughter....
