The Backwoods
by Edward Lee

A backwater prostitute strangled half to death and buried alive. Children scampering into the woods to play–and never return. Women raped and murdered, men strung up and butchered in place–all for sport. Corpses buried and corpses dug up, and bodies found...with parts missing. Welcome home, Patricia...

But it's more than home that awaits Patricia when she returns to the quiet backwoods town where she grew up.

Lust-driven frenzy and sultry dreams spark the most erotic obsessions, while something wanton stalks her from the darkest heart of the night. As the bodies pile up and the blood pours, the blackest secrets are revealed.

Has the town she calls home really been cursed?

No. It's been blessed. By a nameless evil older than sin.

Welcome to...

Great Twist!	05/03/2006 - by shona from cedar grove, queensland AU
This was my first book I read from Edward Lee and thought it was great. Not as much horror as i thought there would be. But still a great page turner. The ending is fantastic. With a great twist that makes you smile. I hope after this ending their is a sequel, but i doubt there will be.
Very good, but...	03/14/2006 - by Jaime Maynard from Montgomery Village, MD US
Though I enjoyed this, I don't think it is one of Lee's better novels. Much of the basic plot was predictable and there wasn't enough character development on anyone except the protagonist. However, the ending was EXCELLENT and satisfying. I'd recommend this for Ed Lee fans, but newcomers should start with one of his other works like Monstrosity or City Infernal.

This is classic horror at it's best! Chilling tale of returning home to face your worst nightmares. Great unpredictable ending! Edward Lee at his best!
