Free (Kindle) Snowbeast! by Peter Tremayne [Scottish Monk Possession Creature Horror]

ATDrake · 11-28-2017, 04:40 AM

Snowbeast! by British author Peter Tremayne (ISFDB, SYKM, Wikipedia), perhaps best known as the author of the popular Sister Fidelma historical mystery series, is his creature feature horror thriller, this one apparently a Scottish abominable snowman sort of case, involving an ancient legend and the mysterious possession of a hapless monk at a monastery near an otherwise idyllic retreat, free for a limited time courtesy of publisher Endeavour Press' Venture imprint.

This was originally published in 1983 by Sphere.

Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK and pretty much everywhere else Amazon sells worldwide, since this is being done via their KDP Select exclusive-or-else program)

Description
When Ellen MacDonald arrives for a surprise visit to her uncle’s remote lodge on the lower slopes of the snow-swept Cairngorms, Doctor MacDonald is on a most unusual case.

At the time-hallowed monastery of St Bechan, a brother has fallen dangerously ill with a mysterious sickness. The doctor’s diagnosis suggests a baffling fever, but to the monks of St Bechan, steeped in the dark myths of the Black Peak, it is a case of possession.

Sudden, savage deaths follow – animals, and then men. In the shadow of the jagged peaks towering against the grey skies of Scotland an immemorial legend has come to light – a legend reaching across hundreds of years and thousands of miles. In the chill mountains a low, fretful wail rises and falls with the driving wind – the cry of the SNOWBEAST!

You had me at the exclamation point. The cover sealed the deal.
