Gary Gentiles seminal novel of supernatural horror that was first
published as The Lurking Based on actual legend, the story begins
when the monster known as the Jersey Devil manifests itself in the
Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey after the accidental exhumation
of a human skeleton. Newspaper reporter Elaine Adams happens to be
in the area during the gruesome event. She delves into the lore and
gore of the creature whose deathless existence is blamed for the
subsequent series of abominable fatalities. She uncovers more than
she ever bargained for when she learns that people have been
disappearing in the Pine Barrens for years - for decades. Helped by
her husband and hampered by an obnoxious sheriff, she digs deep
into the mysterious deaths and dismemberments that recommence every
seven years - a cycle that coincides with the Jersey Devils regular
reappearances. Quickly she is swept into an ageless conspiracy of
satanic cultists who not only worship the Jersey Devil, but who
feed it by means of human sacrifice in a sensual but brutal ritual
in which the victims are impaled on wooden stakes. What Elaine
Adams hopes will be the greatest story of her career might instead
turn out to be her last. Already one reporter has vanished in the
quest to unravel the mystery of the Jersey Devil. Would she be the
next?
