Stop what you are reading and pick up a copy of “Breed” by Owl Goingback. Something is on a killing spree in old St. Augustine and detective Jack Colvin of the St. Augustine Police Department is on the case. Until this occurrence Colvin thought he had seen it all. An ancient Indian chief spirit contacts St. Augustine tour guide Ssabra Omith because she is part Cherokee Indian, about the murders. He wants her to contact the police. When she talks to Colvin and tells him that a Wican priestess from Cassadaga, Florida opened a door for an evil spirit to attempt to crossover and mate with beings of this existence, he shows very little interest in what he’s been told. He thinks Ssabra is just too weird to believe. Later when he hears from another source the same information, he begins to allow himself to realize that he is not dealing with something human but that the killer is something supernatural. Goingback, known for his three other tales of horror that involve Native American folklore, is on solid ground with the spirits that frequent this novel. He is also in new territory with telling the many interesting facets of the legends and lore of America’s oldest city, St. Augustine. Owl Goingback is one of the finest horror writers writing today.
