"You don't go alone into Mad River Mountain" ... Everything would be okay in the country, thought April Bernard, in her new summer home.Here her children would be happy and safe, and she could spend time with the man who had saved her life and given her love. Here she could further her career by researching a clan of remote inbred hill people, living in their own isolated world. She had nothing to fear in Mad River Mountain... Nothing, that is, until the creatures she was studying strayed from the dark woods. Horrible beings with stunted bodies, pumpkin faces, deformed in flesh with a thirst for hot blood. Tourist season is over, hunting season has begun...~An incredibly original and terrifying book - be prepared to lose some sleep over this one.

not sure what category this one is listed under but it should be under 'horror'--it is a book written in 1987 and I don't usually read older books but this one was short and easy to read in one day, however, it is graphic and if you can't handle horror it isn't for you but I found it to be well written and capturing my full attention.
