When the caretaker of the old closed down Manor's Peak Hotel suddenly and unexpectedly leaves for an extended vacation, Annie and her friends finally get their chance to explore the once popular resort. Two strangely unexplained deaths have greatly contributed to its dark and mysterious past. THE LAIR is a frightening story of four friends who unwittingly uncover the resting-place of a fiend. By their discovery, they are forced to defend themselves and their families, who remain blissfully unaware of any danger, against a deadly encounter with the thing that they have angered. EXCERPT: Annie felt her legs began to buckle. Had she not been holding onto Kate, she might have fallen. They had to get out of there, as far away as possible, as quickly as possible. Annie tried to say this to Kate. She tried to move toward the screen door. She did neither. The door at the entrance to the lower lobby swayed inward another few inches. He was coming.
