The black rock stood within itself, brooding and implacable. It waited as it always had.

A missing boy: A trio of mismatched mercenaries — Micah Shughrue, Minerva Atwater, and Ebenzer Elkins, colloquially known as “the Englishman” — are hired by Ellen Bellhaven for a deceptively simple task: check in on her nephew, who may have been taken against his will to a remote New Mexico backwoods settlement called Little Heaven, where a clandestine religious cult holds sway.

A terrifying cult: But shortly after they arrive, things begin to turn ominous. There are stirrings in the woods and over the treetops. And above it all looms the brooding shape of a monolith known as the Black Rock, around which nothing will grow.

A cosmic horror: But once the mercenaries infiltrate the cult, they can’t get back out. Something is keeping everyone at Little Heaven. And its power is growing . . .

Old-school horror meets modern-day storytelling in this unforgettable novel by the bestselling author of THE TROOP.

Reviews

Paul Tremblay, author of A HEAD FULL OF GHOSTS
A sprawling epic that can stand alongside the best of 80's King, Barker, and McCammon. It pits the coolest and most unlikely bounty hunters against an old time religious cult and the ickiest creation this side of John Carpenter's The Thing. Fun, nasty, smart, and scary, and in all the right places
Josh Malerman, author of BIRD BOX
Terrifying . . . The kind of horror that remains in the room of the reader. It's as if Nick Cutter spun a very human yarn into the myriad folds of a monster
Seanan McGuire, author of ADRIFT IN CURRENTS CLEAN AND CLEAR
A slow boil of unrelenting terror and inescapable consequences. Nick Cutter ups his game every time. Beautifully written -- menace drips from every page
Robert McCammon, author of SWAN SONG
A gripping and terrifying story delivered by a very talented writer. Nick Cutter's LITTLE HEAVEN is an intense experience, and one not to be missed!
