A murderous specter is stalking the wooded trails nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Northeast Georgia. His deranged, cunning, and ingenious stealth are the reasons why numerous trekkers have vanished into thin air while hiking the famed Appalachian Trail. The series of unexplained disappearances baffle law enforcement officials for years, until a sudden rash of grisly homicides bearing eerily similar characteristics occur within days of each other. Suddenly, a quiet mountain community is transformed into a panic-stricken nerve center teeming with news reporters and terrified citizens demanding action from the local Sheriff. Completely unaware of the terror in the mountains are life-long friends Atcher McEwen and Ben Warner, who are on a two-week hiking trip to escape the tension and stress of corporate life in Atlanta. Scheduled to rendezvous at an overnight trail shelter with Ben's fiancé, a renowned outdoor photographer who is on assignment and hiking alone on the trail, the two men begin to panic when she fails to arrive as planned. Suddenly, a much needed vacation turns into a frantic hunt for the missing woman. After several exhausting days of searching, Atcher and Ben take refuge in a trail shelter where they quickly fall into a deep sleep. In the early morning hours of the dark night, a silent figure quietly enters the shelter and the unthinkable occurs. Atcher McEwen suddenly finds himself alone, badly injured and frantically running for his life. After being rescued and briefly hospitalized, he learns the terrifying truth that a serial killer is on the loose high in the mountains. Angered by the tragic events that have altered his life forever, Atcher makes a fateful decision to return to the Appalachian Trail to hunt down the deranged murderer. In a stunning conclusion that literally brings Atcher and the woman he loves face-to-face with the killer in a grueling test of physical strength and human resolve, the absolute unthinkable occurs again. Based on actual events, THE HIKER is a suspense thriller that takes the reader on a winding trail of terror, dread and intrigue.
