    About this audiobook

    Four teenagers awaken in a scorched cornfield with no memory of how they got there. All they know is that there were five of them when they found the carcass of the mutilated cow.

    Forty years later, Eric Devlin sends a cryptic email to the other three survivors: I remember everything.

    Karl Doering has spent the majority of his life trying to understand what happened that night and learn the fate of his missing friend. He responds to the mysterious message and finds that Eric has killed himself in a decrepit barn, behind which is a cornfield filled with mutilated cattle.

    When a local girl goes missing, Karl realizes that he and the other two survivors are her only hope. To find her they must confront repressed memories so traumatic they'd driven Eric to take his own life . . . and creatures straight out of their worst nightmares.

      I walk into the orchid show with Ed. As soon as I see the tumultuous hall I know he won’t last long. Ed walks like an old man though he is forty. After ten minutes on his feet, he vomits on some purple phalaenopsis. I get him outside through a fire e

      Another great story by Michael McBride! I Iove his work and hope others are offered on SCRIBD. This is a nice novella about a group of friend and their experience with cattle mutilations 40 years after the fact. An interesting read and a good getaway.

      Unidentified by Michael McBride and narrated by the great How Hempel is a terrific and terrifying short story about friends that met the unknown when they were young. This event brought about this story, the second meeting! Wow! Very unique!Wonderful narration that kept the tension tight! Great job as usual!!!
