Little Heaven : A Novel Of Mercenaries, Cults And Unrelenting Terror By The Bestselling Author Of The Troop

Mismatched mercenaries meet cosmic horror in this terrifying novel by the bestselling author of THE TROOP

The black rock stood within itself, brooding and implacable. It waited as it always had. A missing boy: A trio of mismatched mercenaries -- Micah Shughrue, Minerva Atwater, and Ebenzer Elkins, colloquially known as "the Englishman" -- are hired by Ellen Bellhaven for a deceptively simple task: check in on her nephew, who may have been taken against his will to a remote New Mexico backwoods settlement called Little Heaven, where a clandestine religious cult holds sway. A terrifying cult: But shortly after they arrive, things begin to turn ominous. There are stirrings in the woods and over the treetops. And above it all looms the brooding shape of a monolith known as the Black Rock, around which nothing will grow. A cosmic horror: But once the mercenaries infiltrate the cult, they can't get back out. Something is keeping everyone at Little Heaven. And its power is growing . . . Old-school horror meets modern-day storytelling in this unforgettable novel by the bestselling author of THE TROOP.
