Now, haunted and doubted, he ventures into the wilderness, determined to uncover the truth. What he discovers is beyond his wildest fears and challenges everything he thought he knew. Can he survive the answers he seeks, or will the swamp's secrets consume him? Dive into a gripping tale of survival and the supernatural, where the line between myth and reality blurs, and the stakes are life and death.

From the publisher

Beast is a fast-paced adventure of guts and survival, this time with a paranormal twist, from acclaimed author Watt Key… Adam says he can’t remember where he was for the two months he went missing in a Florida swamp. That’s not true. He does remember. The truth: He was driving with his parents, and the car crashed when his father swerved to avoid colliding with a giant Sasquatch-like creature standing in the highway. Haunted by his parents’ disappearance and hounded for claiming to have seen Bigfoot, Adam sets off into the deadly wilderness on a hunt for answers as to what really happened that night. The answer he finds is more terrifying–and more fascinating–than he could have imagined.
