Description

It's been three years since the attack on the logging camp by an unknown creature; the Snag. In all that time, young Zack hasn't been idle, and has been working diligently with his boss, Mat, to take the company in a more profitable and safer direction. All his hard work will soon pay off, as they begin their final season before the conversion.

Unfortunately, their work site is uncomfortably close to where the attacks took place, and everyone is understandably on edge. Things get even more tense for Zack when he discovers that one of his old buddies has just been hired, and Zack is forced to confront old temptations.

Meanwhile, two governmental agents follow strange happenings in the countryside communities that call the edge of the forest their home. Something ancient has prowled these dark woods for millennia, and for the first time in thousands of years, there's something new.

"With a tranquil satisfaction, the living nightmare closed its eyes and raised its nose to the wind. Pulling the cool night air through its nostrils, it let out a long, satisfied sigh of content. As its lips peeled back into a tight, sadistic smile, it revealed a mouth full of serrated, triangular teeth. The long, black hair atop its head came to life as two long tentacles, the color of ink, stirred beneath them. Sporadically placed along the length of the inky black arms were smaller tentacles that ended in a boneless point. The arms atop its head gathered up its hair, wrapping the mess into neat braids. The boneless arms pulled the braids back and away from its face as the preternatural creature lowered its head to feed."
