Currently reading

Dark Mountain - written by Richard Laymon


An easy read. To be enjoyed going to and from work (they provide a shuttle service for the employees)
A violent book with sick scenes but I'm not one to shy away from fictional violence and gore. Laymon is a good storyteller and the book flows by. So far our unlucky protagonists are hiking and what they don't know but we do is that there is an extremely disturbed woman accompanied by I suspect, her mentally deficient son in the area that they are about to visit. They have already killed a couple and she conducted some witch ritual to avoid their bodies to be found. The ritual involves eating the hair and nails of the people her son killed. The unsuspecting group involves a guy, his girlfriend and his two teen kids and his best friend with his family of 5. Wife, 17 year old son and 10 something old twin daughters. I'm curious about what is going to happen next.
