Jack de Golia deftly creates tension for an unsettling event that takes place in the remote woods of Pennsylvania during the COVID-19 pandemic, which gives this audiobook a timely feel. Listeners meet Cameron and Payce Stanhope, who leave York to isolate in Cam's family's hunting lodge. De Golia keeps listeners on edge from the first night, when a loud thump awakens the couple. As they investigate, they find huge footprints, glowing eyes, and a foul smell. While grocery shopping, they meet de Golia's best creation--a butcher who admires Trump and blames Pace, who is Korean, for Covid. The couple is relatable, especially as they make some unwise decisions that result in a series of accidents and growing suspense. Audio enhances the quickly changing situations and emotions--and the complete surprise of the climax. S.G.B. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2023]
