{"product_id":"this-wretched-valley","title":"This Wretched Valley","description":"2024 Bram Stoker Award®? Nominee for Superior Achievement in a First Novel\n\n“A hallucinatory nightmare of a novel that blends adventure, horror and historical fiction, and isn’t shy about violence or strangeness.”—New York Times\n\n“If you love wilderness horror, This Wretched Valley is a must-read.”—Alma Katsu, author of The Hunger and The Fervor\n\nTake only pictures. Leave only bones.\n\nThis trip is going to be Dylan’s big break. Her geologist friend Clay has discovered an untouched cliff face in the Kentucky wilderness, and she is going to be the first person to climb it. Together with Clay, his research assistant Sylvia, and Dylan’s boyfriend Luke, Dylan is going to document her achievement on Instagram and finally cement her place as the next rising star in rock climbing.\n\nSeven months later, three bodies are discovered in the trees just off the highway. All are in various states of decay: one a stark, white skeleton; the second emptied of its organs; and the third a mutilated corpse with the tongue, eyes, ears, and fingers removed. But Dylan is still missing—and no trace of her, dead or alive, has been discovered.\n\nWere the climbers murdered? Did they succumb to cannibalism? Or are their impossible bodies the work of an even more sinister force?\n\nThis dread-inducing debut builds to a bloodcurdling climax, and will leave you shocked by the final twist.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 168369368X\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.168369368X.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:KIEFER, JENNY\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
