Roadkill King: Cabin 187, #1

By Dan B. Fierce

Cover Blurb:

"Everyone needs a hobby, but not everyone's hobby involves blood, entrails, and... roadkill.

Tatum Johnson didn't mean to hit the dog. His ex-girlfriend Jessica can attest to that. But that didn't stop the hunger. Now, he hunts along the back roads, running down animals for sport.

But on a night as pitch black as his soul, fate puts Tatum on a different road where new horrors await. On this night, Justice is served."

This solo debut short story by horror author Dan B. Fierce is just a sampling of the horrors that will await the reader in the Cabin 187 series.

TRIGGER WARNING!

This short story depicts violence against animals. Don't worry, though; they get even.

DEDICATION

This short story is dedicated to my husband, Brian, my family, friends, fellow authors in my circle, and coworkers.

You all put up with my twisted imagination, flakiness, and procrastination. (More about that later.)

This small victory is as much yours as it is mine.

Thank you all for being my support base.

I love you all.

CHAPTER ONE

Tatum Johnson wiped his pride and joy down with a chamois. This car, his baby, only saw any action when he got the itch, a need deep inside of him to go hunting. That was what he called it: hunting.
