Author Description

Isaiah Combs is a struggling gig musician who has lived in Naples Florida his whole life. When his acquaintance Harvey tells him about a high paying job to do night watch deep out in the Picayune Strand State Forest, he seizes the opportunity. Deep in the swamps of South Florida, where the roads turn to dirt and civilization fades into the wilderness, Isaiah meets his new boss Deb at the isolated wildlife research center. The job seems simple, just watch the place, report anything unusual. But when the woods start watching him, when the silence of the forest is broken by the sound of something chasing, Isaiah realizes he's not alone. A terrifying blend of Southern folk horror, backwoods paranoia, and unrelenting suspense, Picayune Strand is a nightmare-inducing descent into the unknown where the cryptids aren't just real, they're waiting.
