Drake McCarty’s leg was shattered deep in the wilderness, and as the flash flood closed over him, he looked death in the face.
When he wakes up in a hospital bed, in a military base that shouldn’t exist, he has a whole leg and a furious sister to deal with.
Drake is sworn to keep a secret he doesn’t understand, but whatever pulled him out of the flood, isn’t quite done with him yet, because even if you leave nothing but footprints, the things that walk the forest can still follow you home.
Excerpt 22
Park Biologist Amadahy Love knew bears. She had seen far more than her share in the years she had bounced around the United States National Park Service as a seasonal and wrangling the black bear population of Elkhorn was one of her primary jobs. She had seen them live and wild, drugged and tagged, and dead and rotten. She had no idea what she was looking at here in the forest by her home, but this was no bear. Aside from the fact that there had been no Grizzly’s this far south in generations, it was easily twice the size of the largest Kodiak, and it was just wrong. Still, it was bear shaped, large and headed towards her house. Training and experience had the cold steel of the Remington in her hands before she had even fully processed this. Ama chambered a firecracker round and aimed above its head.
Her breathing evened as she prepared to fire the first shot. Then her eyes widened in shock as something flickered in the air between her and the creature. The weight in her hands suddenly lessened followed by a soft thump at her feet and for a brief moment she stared in shock at the cleanly severed steel barrel and plastic stock of the shotgun. Then there was a prick at her spine and the world went dark around her.
