High Voltage

Mystery/Thriller

by Alan B. Gibson

He had a couple of weeks to kill.

When Strider, an unassuming hiker fresh off the Appalachian Trail, needs extra cash, a curio shop owner suggests Winter’s Farm, a popular stop for hikers looking for day work. What seems like a lucky break turns into a series of horrors as one by one his fellow hikers disappear, including his fiancee.

A cast of colorful characters complicates his quest to find her, and after stumbling on the dark truth his search turns to a desperate escape from the farm’s kooky owner.

But a foreboding electric fence stymies his chance of freedom, in High Voltage, part of A. B. Gibson’s Appalachian Trail Murder Mysteries.

REVIEW

4 out of 5

WOW. This was really fast-paced, but I’m not sure it could be anything else. A farm where creepy things happen and people disappear? Sounds like the perfect setup for a horror movie, right? You’ll definitely be on the edge of your seat holding your breath at times while reading this, and I have to admit I had chills running down my spine more than once.
