The Oath
Author:Frank Peretti
An ancient sin.
An ancient oath.
A town with a deadly secret . . .
Something sinister is at work in Hyde River, an isolated old mining town in mountains of the Pacific Northwest.
Something EVIL.
Under the cover of darkness, it strikes without warning, taking life in the most chilling and savage fashion. The latest victim, a nature photographer was brutally killed while camping in the mountains.
With little hard evidence to go on, Sheriff Les Collins closes the case, chalking it up to the work of a rogue bear - just like so many other unsolvable deaths and disappearances that have plagued Hyde River over the years.
But wildlife biologist Steve Benson refuses to let the cause of his brother's death remain a mystery. He is joined in his investigation by attractive, auburn-haired Sheriff's Deputy Tracy Ellis. She has grown up in Hyde River. She's seen enough things swept under the rug by local law enforcement ot know that something's amiss.
What they discover is a predator more terrifying than anything they had imagined and a town in the grip of unspeakable evil
