“Leave the forest alone. Whatever's out there, just let it be. Don't make it
angry.”
When a horrific discovery is made at the edge of town, Sheriff James
Kopperud realizes the answers he seeks might be waiting beyond in the vast
forest. But everybody in the town of Deal knows that there's something out
there in the forest, something that should never be disturbed. A deal was made
long ago, a deal that was supposed to keep the town safe. And if he insists on
investigating the murder of a local girl, James is going to have to break that
deal and head out into the wilderness.
Meanwhile, James has no idea that his estranged daughter Ramsey has
returned to town. Ramsey is running from something, and she thinks she can
find safety in the vast tunnel system that runs beneath the forest. Before long,
however, Ramsey finds herself coming face to face with creatures that hide in
the shadows. One of these creatures is known as the devil, and another is
known as the witch. They're both waiting for the whore to arrive, but for very
different reasons. And soon Ramsey is offered a terrible deal, one that could
save or destroy the entire town, and maybe even the world.
The Devil, the Witch and the Whore is the first book in a trilogy about a town
and its demons, and about the consequences of making a deal with the devil.
Contains scenes of horror and violence.
