These undead don’t sparkle! The horrors in Craig McDonough’s
“Horror at Pine Ridge” are ruthless, bloody, and on a mission. From the first
chapter it is obvious something very dark is going on in Pine Ridge Cemetery.
Besnick and Bojan have come to bury their brother Vladimir and are appreciative
of the care gravedigger Roy shows their dead relative. Sharing a beer with the
gravedigger they proceed to ask him to assist them by placing a box on the
casket before filling in the grave. Comfortably inebriated from the beer and
grappa shared by the mysterious European brother’s, Roy is more than happy to
comply. However Roy is a greedy man and as they say, karma is a killer. As the
story progresses we learn more about Vlad and his extraordinary “brothers”. This
is a bloody good tale with plenty of gore and special effects that jump off the
page. A female detective and her force and a local crime family find themselves
the targets of these hungry and vengeful characters. Besnick the Koschei may think he’s the star of
the show but Vlad is the most memorable character in this
vampire/zombie/revenant tale. Half the time you want to kill him, the other
half you’re cheering him on. This is a unique tale of what happens when modern
technology faces ancient horrors. A chilling thriller you won’t be able to put
down until it’s finished.
