A “gripping and terrifying story…and one not to be missed” (Robert McCammon) from the acclaimed author of The Troop and The Deep!
A trio of mismatched mercenaries—Micah Shughrue, Minerva Atwater, and Ebenzer Elkins, colloquially known as “the Englishman”—is hired by young Ellen Bellhaven for a deceptively simple task: check in on her nephew, who may have been taken against his will to a remote New Mexico backwoods settlement called Little Heaven, where a clandestine religious cult holds sway. But shortly after they arrive, things begin to turn ominous. There are stirrings in the woods and over the treetops—and above all else, the brooding shape of a monolith known as the Black Rock casts its terrible pall. Paranoia and distrust soon grip the settlement. Escape routes are gradually cut off as events spiral toward madness. Hell—or the closest thing to it—invades Little Heaven. All present here are now forced to take a stand and fight back, but whatever has cast its dark eye on Little Heaven is marshaling its power—and it wants them all…

The descriptions are at times worse than Stephen King's many tellings of bodily functions; I do not wish to hear about horse genitalia in detail, and I did not think it added anything to the story. Nor did the matress soaked with "male fluids" make me want to know more.
Another example of bad writing is when something actually exciting is about to happen, and the author goes off on a tangent describing something wholly disinteresting. More than twice I forgot what the setting was, and of the "immediate" threat the character was facing.
I made myself give the book a few more hours, but I can't tell you what took place during that time even if I had to in order to save my own life.
Ambitious, confusing, failing.
