The Oath

De: Frank E. Peretti

Narrado por: Tom Taylorson

A brutal killer lurks near Hyde River in the Pacific Northwest. When wildlife biologist Steve Benson is called in to investigate the latest murder, he discovers that the victim is his brother. But why are the terrorized townspeople silent—and unwilling to help?

Something evil is at work in Hyde River, an isolated mining town in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. Under the cover of darkness, a predator strikes without warning—taking life in the most chilling and savage fashion.

The community of Hyde River watches in terror as residents suddenly vanish. Yet, the more locals are pressed for information, the more they close ranks, sworn to secrecy by their forefathers’ hidden sins.

Only when Hyde River’s secrets are exposed is the true extent of the danger fully revealed. What the town discovers is something far more deadly than anything they’d imagined. Something that doesn’t just stalk its victims—it has the power to turn hearts black with decay as it slowly fills their souls with darkness.

Excellent reading of a classic

Always loved this book since I was a kid, and this is an excellent rendition of it. the narrator's performance is great, he sounds like the setting of the book. his character voices do a great job of making the characters come alive as distinct individuals without sounding contrived.
The story itself is, of course, great. An excellent example of how Christian fiction can still be thrilling and entertaining and not fall into the trap of being corny or even overly preachy. highly recommend this to anyone.

mercy

I strongly recommend this book.
Frank Peretti does it again! He is quite a writer. One who has an incomparable talent for this art. He spins a believable tale like few others can. Dean Koontz fans may enjoy this.

Special props to the narrator. if talent was a person, you would him, Tom! Talk about skillful hold on each character and bringing their personalities to life.

Folks, select this book, clear your schedule and enjoy the ride.

exceptional!!

loved this...as per Peretti, it was an amazing story line and very well articulated

Nail biter!

Once it got to the center, it was really hard to put down… thrilling, deep and rather gruesome! Not for the faint of heart. But a well written story of faith!
