Description
The monsters live inside of Kate Woodson. Chronic pain and a host of autoimmune diseases have robbed her of a normal, happy life. Her husband Andrew’s surprise of their dream Maine lake cottage for the summer is the gift of a lifetime. It’s beautiful, remote, idyllic, a place to heal. But they are not alone. Something is in the woods, screeching in the darkness, banging on the house, leaving animals for dead. Just like her body, Kate’s cottage becomes her prison. She and Andrew must fight to survive the creature that lurks in the dead of night.

A Note From the Publisher
Also available in paperback, ebook and audio. Simultaneous publication US, UK, worldwide.
Author biog: Publishers Weekly named Shea’s lauded 2014 novel The Montauk Monster as one of their best reads of the summer. He is the author of over seventeen books, including We Are Always Watching, Tortures of the Damned, The Jersey Devil and They Rise.
Shea is the product of a misspent childhood watching scary movies, reading and wishing Bigfoot would walk past his house. When he’s not writing thrillers and horror, he also spins tall tales for middle grade readers online. His video podcast, Monster Men, is one of the most watched horror podcasts in the world. Living with his supportive family and two cats, he’s happy to be close enough to New York City to see the skyline without having to pay New York rent.

Featured Reviews
OutlawPoet ., Reviewer
Generally, I read Hunter Shea for light-hearted horror. A little silly and a whole lot of fun.
Creature, while still fun, proves that Hunter Shea has some serious horror writing chops!
This is a scary and heartbreaking story that kept me on edge all the way through. I loved our couple so much – their relationship was what every relationship should be! And, oh, I so worried for both of them.
As I worried over their marriage and Kate’s health, Shea brings on some extremely scary situations – the kind where you peek over your shoulder as you read.
Warning; light gore and heavy heartbreak are very much present here and the anxiety is relentless.
This is quite possibly his best work yet and it lingers. I’m still not over this read.
5 Very well deserved stars.
