Trashy Suspense Novel Jacqueline E Smith

"Once upon a time, the towering pines and sturdy Carolina hemlock seemed like a protective barrier, the walls of a living sanctuary. But now, draped with morning mist and heaped with snow, my beloved woods appear a menacing maze of secrets and shadows. The perfect hiding place for monsters."Eloise Keller doesn't believe in the Bogman, the creature that's said to haunt the woods of her small mountain town. Or rather, she doesn't want to believe in it. She'd rather devote her time and energy to raising her son, running her bookstore, and daydreaming about Daniel Brunsworth, the handsome horror novelist who's just moved to town. Her sense of certainty is shaken, however, when a young tourist mysteriously vanishes from a neighboring ski resort. And with sightings of the Bogman steadily escalating, Eloise may well soon discover that some monsters are real whether she believes in them or not.
