Demon Key — David Brookover

An ancient evil has awakened . . .

Police Chief Dexter Lowe enjoys his humdrum job in the sleepy little town of Gator Creek, Florida, until a kidnapper begins terrorizing the local women. FBI Special Agent Teddi McCoy arrives to help him hunt down the mysterious kidnapper. After failing to secure any leads, they are forced to recruit the FBI's ace-in-the-hole psychic from the Louisiana Bayou, Jackson "Swamp Jack" Lafevre.

Aided by the eccentric LaFevre's remarkable visions, they track the kidnapper to an isolated island on the eastern edge of the Florida Everglades. A key with an eerie and violent past. Demon Key. A place where the kidnapper's victims have mysteriously vanished. Forever.

After finally dispatching the kidnapper, their exhilaration soon plummets to the depths of terror as the key reveals its greatest horror . . . a sinister creature so powerful and vile that Gator Creek's only hope of survival . . . must come from the past.
