Untold Tale

by Jeremy Simons

Sheriff Tom Justice does the unthinkable. He agrees to allow a government project to be released in the woods of Rednest. The project, created at Si-Tec industries as a means of warfare, a perfect killing machine, an animal genetically engineered to kill our enemies. However, when civilians go missing in the woods and only pools of blood are left behind, the sheriff is faced with a dilemma. He can cover it all up which is what he swore to do, or he can choose to fight and kill the beast. An eleven year old boy is killed on a camping trip with five of his friends and two of their parents. It leads to the long time Sheriff Justice's retirement. It changes everyone's lives involved forever. Ten years pass before the boys deliver on their childhood pact of one day going back to the lake where their friend had been brutally murdered. Ten years pass before Sheriff Justice realizes that he had been played for a fool all those years ago and the government never captured the beast. Ten years pass before the sheriff (on a vengeful hunting trip), the boys (on a trip down memory lane), and one of the parents end up back in the woods of Rednest on the same night Their final showdowns will all come before the sun is up, and no one is guaranteed to survive the night.

Huge twist at the end. This story definitely had me interested. The government worked on a secret project, unleashing their own animal into the woods. When the first couple of deaths occurred, the Sheriff of the area became tired of having to cover them up. There is way more to this story. This tale has some gruesome parts that left little to the imagination. Definitely another great book by this author.

Good story

This was a very interesting story which kept my attention to the end. I would have rated this a 5 had the editing not been so poor (Kindle version).
