Book Description
Virgil Johnson is a revolting man who grew up in an isolated village in the Smoky Mountains, unleashing his horror on young girls under the command, "Do your duty." Clayton Hendrix, the grieving father of Johnson's last victim, finds himself confined with the monster he blames for killing his daughter and wife, while confronted with his own actions as both men search for humanity and inner peace. As Federal Agent Krista Angier unravels the months after Johnson's disappearance, leading her to the 90 acres of Deer Park, she discovers the hidden existence and terror in the village of Johnson's past. This is the tale of two men from two different worlds ... one's world in perfect harmony, the others from the depths of hell. Leading them on an emotional roller coaster ride, searching for their own tranquility while dealing with their individual nightmares and crimes as the world they now share spirals toward devastation. Placing you inside the minds of both killer and victim leaves no mystery as to what's upcoming. The mystery lies within the reason and lessons from their thoughts and actions. This story goes full circle in many ways: Good becomes bad, bad becomes good, love turns to hate, hate turns to love and wrong becomes right. I like to joke and say it's the story of two men bonding. In actuality, it's a story of redemption, of an inner peace influenced by a higher power - the higher power available to each and all of us. Deliverance, Misery and Phenomenon converge in this gripping psychological thriller.
