Sam Hunt has forgotten all that he ever was. Leading a good life with his family, Sam is a caretaker at a ski resort. But somewhere beyond consciousness, Sam knows that happiness can be taken away.... This description may be from another edition of this product.
So hunky that even men have fallen in love with him, Native Canadian Sam Hunting Wolf is in denial about his Indian heritage. Nevertheless, he is a powerful shaman whose spirit and energy is being used by a malevolent force known as "The Trickster" to slaughter his way through the small ski town of Silver. Sam's got to get in touch with his roots fast, before he's the only one left to ski those slopes.Muriel Gray is a wonderful addition to the horror genre. I also enjoyed her "Furnace." But here she's written a fast paced, engaging story with characters you really care about. The origin and reason for the Trickster's resurfacing is a bit muddled, but otherwise this was a fun book.As to the above title, the Trickster possesses animals in order to do his stalking, which makes for some really spooky scenes. When kitty starts using some very bad language it's time to leave the house!
An Excellent Thriller

An excellent example of a true thriller combining mystic Indian vs Christian beliefs. It was hard to put this one down, and is a book I have re-read several times. I look forward to her next work.
Excellent!

Definitely one of the best horror novels I've ever read! Muriel Gray does a fantastic job capturing pure evil as well as the beauty of nature, love and the fascinating spiritual beliefs of the Native Canadians. She takes over where Stephen King and Dean Koontz leave off. Absolutely brilliant! Not only was my "hunger" for a good horror story satisfied, I was also moved to tears when it was all over. Read it, you will definitely not regret it!

The main character, Sam Hunt, wants to be a "normal" guy. He loves his wife and kids, which represent the type of life he's always dreamed of having. He however, is a Native Canadian, who wants to forget his past. The trouble starts when people are being murdered in strange and bizarre ways. At the same time, Sam is having mysterious blackouts. It is only through remembering his true nature and owning his past that Sam can become whole and stop the string of frightening murders. By weaving together events of past and present, along with Native Canadian myth Muriel Gray has created a gripping story that kept me turning pages all night. Excellent Story! Can't wait for her next book
