SKELETAL REMAINS

   Terry's first published novel, 2001's 'SKELETAL REMAINS', is a series of chilling short tales tied neatly together by a suspenseful wraparound story that will keep you guessing until the last breathtaking sentence.

   Three people in search of the ultimate rush that only true fear can bring congregate inside the dark, mysterious confines of a long-abandoned homestead deep within a desolate, foreboding forest. Inside, they will be regaled with terror tales that include:

DEATH BOARDS THE PEGASUS - In the year 2041, A space vessel is tasked to transport a dangerous new species between colonies for scientific study. The crew soon finds themselves trapped in a deadly game of cat and mouse with a creature who has developed a unique taste for human flesh...

PREY - A man whose family was brutally slaughtered watches haplessly as the killer is freed on a technicality. Months later, he emerges from his shell of self pity a new entity, one willing to stop at nothing to see justice served. But as the souls of the wicked begin to fall beneath the sharp-edge blade of retribution, when exactly does the hunter transform into what he depises most?

THE REVENGE SQUAD - An unlikely team of 'anti-' super-heroes are tasked to retrieve a governor's son from the malevolent force that has taken him hostage. Within the cold stone walls of an isolated, abandoned chemical plant, the battle royal ensues, and the team soon discovers that not all enemies are so easily detected....

RUNNING FOR DAYLIGHT - A spoiled, wealthy professional football player crosses the line between stark reality and terror-filled surrealism when his girlfriend is discovered murdered inside his spacious cabin retreat, and the only logical suspect seems to be himself....

THE CARETAKER - In the not-to-distant future, two free-wheelin' rednecks cruise the highway of the dead in search of cold beer, edible food, and live chicks. What they find instead is a man grimly determined to continue his life's work despite death's rude intrusion. A tale dedicated to the films of George "Night of The Living Dead" Romero.

    Before the night is over and the witching hour officially rings in the Eve of All Saints, it will be established for those who survive that everyone has buried skeletons locked away. Some simply refuse to remain inside the coffin.....

The face of fear is not one confined to a single, stereotypical description. It assumes many varied shapes, many varied identities, sometimes not revealing itself until there is not sufficient time to avoid it's intrusive glare.
