Under the control of a madman...with no way out. Aaron Dupree has turned his life around. After serving six years in prison for his part in an armed robbery, he's released on parole. He's gotten a job and met a girl. Things are looking up...until he's pulled over for speeding-a parole violation-and blackmailed by the officer. He's forced to do terrible things to avoid going back to prison. Aaron soon learns how truly deranged and sick the officer is as he's dragged under a tide of ever-escalating horror. He thinks he's seen the worst the cop has to offer until he meets the man with the scar, a vicious and twisted monster who lives only to deal pain. "Wow, this was a sick one. I loved it!" --Mommacat's review "As a horror fan, there isn't much that surprises me. The depravity of certain torturers/killers, in real life and in fiction, is something I have gotten used to over the years. In stories like "The Girl Next Door" by Jack Ketchum and "The Summer I Died" by Ryan C. Thomas, the worst of humanity is on display. The same is true for this book-plus some." --Char's Horror Corner "One of the most brutal stories I have ever read, and that's saying a lot." --The Horror Fiction Review

Deep in Montana's Lolo National Forest, toxic waste is leaking from aged oil drums and mixing with a new batch of biological sludge that has been dumped into a remote lake. It sickens, it mutates, and like cancer, it spreads and devours. A group of hikers stumble upon bank robbers who've been hiding out in the forest. Held at gunpoint, they soon discover they are being hunted by a vicious predator, and it will take their combined efforts to make it out of the forest alive.

A creature born of flesh and toxic waste stalks the ocean depths, devouring every living thing in its path as it grows to a colossal size. Weeks after its inception, the monster rises from the deep and attacks a cruise ship, alerting humanity to its presence. The United States armed forces are called in to stop it, but with its human like intellect, mammoth size and organic, alien-like weaponry, the toxic behemoth will prove the most formidable enemy humanity has ever seen.

Psychology professor Elle Shaefer is about to have her life transformed by a reclusive folk doctor who died almost a century earlier. Elle is vacationing on Beaver Island, Michigan with close friends during a difficult period of her life. Her destiny becomes entwined with that of the island's legendary folk doctor, Feodor Protar. Protar had arrived on the island in 1893, seeking refuge from his own dis-ease. Through caring for the sick and dying, he had begun to heal. His constant spiritual companion in the process was Leo Tolstoy, whose later writings inspired Protar's long journal reflections. Yet some crucial ingredient is missing in Protar's prescription for his own healing. In a quirk of time and space, Elle provides the missing ingredient. Although Elle was initially dismayed to learn that Protar had abandoned his wife in Latvia and immigrated to the States, she softens towards him as she begins to translate his journals. There she learns of the struggle to redeem himself. As Elle wrestles her own demons in intensive psychotherapy, she finds the right medicine for both herself and Protar.
