Linda Watkins delivers a frightening read that only gains in intensity the further you dare to go. Building on a Native American Legend, Linda takes a simple cautionary figure and devilishly twist it into a macabre nightmare that any-one would be lucky to escape. The perfect read for those who take their wooded strolls with a dose of terror
