No living creature can survive a night in the Kentucky valley called Owenton Hollow during hot bad season summers. Locals fear the place. No one lives near it and all animals move to high ground before dark.Something hunts there and it hates all life. By 1995, several outsiders escaping the city had built houses near the hollow, and DEA agents began operations to stop a major Owenton drug dealer. No one warned the outsiders about the hollow, and it was going to be a bad season summer, the first in nineteen years. They would find out the hard way. Based on fact and myth, this is the story of what happened when a misfit squad of strangers led by a Marine combat veteran faced the impossible...an enemy that could not die.
Dennis Latham, a Marine to the end, has published short fiction in several magazines but prefers writing action novels like the acclaimed Michael In Hell. His last book, Waiting For An Open Bed, is a collection of bizarre humor from the fictional Sunnyvale Mental Rehab in Fermonga, Ohio. He writes a bimonthly newsletter for combat veterans, The S-2 Report, dealing with VA benefits and PTSD. He currently lives in Indiana in a sometimes haunted Victorian house, where he has experienced bizarre events that defy accepted reality. The Kentucky Ghost Hunters, PINK, will make a return visit to his house in February 2012.
