An ancient sin. A long forgotten oath. A town with a deadly secret.

Something evil is at work in Hyde River, an isolated mining town in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest.

Under the cover of darkness, a predator strikes without warning—taking life in the most chilling and savage fashion.

The community of Hyde River watches in terror as residents suddenly vanish. Yet, the more locals are pressed for information, the more they close ranks, sworn to secrecy by their forefathers' hidden sins.

Only when Hyde River's secrets are exposed is the true extent of the danger fully revealed. What the town discovers is something far more deadly than anything they'd imagined. Something that doesn't just stalk its victims, but has the power to turn hearts black with decay as it slowly fills their souls with darkness.

      Peretti's inspirational novels pit good against evil. In this one, Professor of Wildlife Biology Steve Benson's brother has seemingly been devoured by a grizzly on a mountain above a Western mining town. The professor wants to know why and finds himself facing evil in the form of a fire-breathing dragon, the "protégé" of the current mine owner. It seems that an oath of silence about a massacre in his town a century ago brought the beast to life. Tom Stechschulte provides the perfect background for the serpent's appearance. When listeners catch a glimpse of it, they'll find their palms sweaty with the horror instilled by Stechschulte's narration. E.V. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine
