When monster hunters Rick Becker and Sarah Dalton retreat to the Smoky Mountains for a well-earned vacation, they expect peaceful hikes and quiet nights. But when a gruesome attack shakes the nearby woods and massive feline tracks turn up near a tourist cabin, peace quickly gives way to something darker. As legends of the Wampus Cat begin to blur with reality, Rick and Sarah are pulled into a chilling investigation that uncovers not just ancient Cherokee myths, but evidence of a secretive research facility hidden deep in the forest. With the help of trusted allies and a mysterious Cherokee elder, the team races to uncover the truth before more blood is spilled. Are these creatures a relic of folklore, or something engineered and far more deadly? The forest holds its secrets tightly, but Rick and the team are about to tear them open — even if it costs them everything. Shadow-Walkers Book Three is a fast-paced supernatural thriller filled with rich folklore, tactical action, and edge-of-your-seat suspense.
