Though there is not much really happening at that point, the description evokes an emotion of foreboding and, well...eeriness. There are no sounds described just the forest, though it must have been windy already outside the confines of the forest. What is it with the Midwest? I never knew that shipments actually do go astray. Suzanne Brockmann wrote in one of her book "countdowns" I think it was, that the shipment with her first big seller "Prince Joe" was derailed or something and ended up in the water on the way west. That's why that book was scarcer than the others. I sure hope nothing like that happened to THE BEAST. :sad: Michelle, you’ve hit the nail on the head with your perceptive comment.

The midwest distributers are holding BEAST hostage or something. Though I'm hoping my copy will arrive today. Kacey, I think you’re right.

Very subtle, with great word choice, instead of beating you over the head :fryingpan: but you're always RIGHT THERE. I SWEAR robbers have held up the truck with the BEAST book in the midwest...
