The Serpent Waits Bill Hiatt

Amy Monroe's journalistic instincts told her something was wrong in Santa Brígida. The town had too many strange disappearances, mental breakdowns, and bizarre weather patterns. Yet none of these anomalies got much press coverage, let alone serious investigation. Planning to write a career-making expose, Amy goes to Santa Brígida undercover to find out the truth. She suspects clandestine scientific experiments, but from the moment a key source disappears-together with the motel in which she met him-she realizes that what's really happening may be stranger than she could ever imagine. Striving relentlessly to uncover secrets, Amy runs the risk of discovering the truth-that some secrets should stay buried.
