The Hunted
By Val Tobin
Twelve years ago thirteen-year-old Rachel Needham lost her mother to the claws and fangs of the grendels, Storm Lake’s monsters. Now, Rachel leads teams of protectors into the forests to hunt down and eradicate the scourge that has spread around the world.
Death hides in the treetops ...
On the team’s latest foray, they stumble across the body of a young woman.
Who was she? Why did the grendels, who survive by eating flesh, leave her untouched? If the grendels didn’t kill her, how did she die?
Then the past comes calling and sucks Rachel and her protectors into a nightmare of terror and betrayal.
