Fearful Rock

In the dying days of the American Civil War, a band of Confederate soldiers retreat through the Georgia mountains, their cause already lost, their morale shattered. But the war is not the worst thing they will face. In the remote hills above their path lies Fearful Rock, a place where something ancient and patient has waited for centuries, feeding on fear and blood. When the soldiers seek shelter in its shadow, they awaken a evil that does not distinguish between Yankees and Rebels, between the living and the dead. Wellman weaves together the grinding horror of a lost war with something far older and more terrible, creating a tale where the true darkness is not the kind that falls at night, but the kind that has always been there, watching, waiting to be remembered.
