The Beast

By Virginia Henderson

Why?

I find myself asking this same question every day. Why us? Why were our lives ripped out from under us so brutally? So mercilessly? My family didn't deserve this nightmare. No, it's worse than a nightmare. We couldn't wake up. No matter how hard we fought. Every day was another chapter of our captivity.

Do you want to know about my family's struggles? The sickness, paranoia, and starvation? How about the cruel mind games we faced day in and day out? Fine. I'll tell you. It's not a pretty story but I'll tell you about the Beast.

***Contains a shocking twist! ***

***Trigger warnings: a lot of character deaths & mild blood***

Includes a sample of Log Off, a fast-paced, page-turning, mystery!
-Trust is vital. But whom can you trust when the stakes are high, and time is literally ticking away? Jessica has no choice but to trust the suspicious young man who seems to have all the answers.

Praise for The Beast:

"This book is a short read- but packed to the brim with action and suspense- and has very short chapters, which makes for an easy read. I definitely recommend this book for that short, summer thriller you've been looking for!" -Just a Bookish Blog

"I like that this book was more of a short story and I was able to read it in one sitting. It kept my interest and the ending was entertaining. I did figure it out (the ending) as the story progressed... but I won't give it away. Just, read the book and see for yourself." -Bobbie Phillip, author of The House and Blink

"This book keeps you on the edge of your seat until the end. There is a surprising twist at the end which leaves you wanting more." -Amazon Customer
