The Creature of Lituya Bay

Deep in the heart of Alaska's southeast coast lies a place so fearsome that even the native Tlingits avoid it, a place that's the home of their earthquake god, Kah Lituya. There, those who drown in the bay's treacherous entrance become kushtaka, ghost-like beings as dangerous as the bay itself.In this quintessential Rusty Wilson story, a desperate man goes to Lituya Bay to die, but soon finds that the place holds other deeper secrets. With only the jacket on his back, he must decide if he instead wants to live, and if so, how to outwit the hand of his blackest fears and outsmart a creature that wishes him dead. And even if he can outwit the creature, can he survive the many other dangers of Lituya Bay?"This is a fantastic story, evocative and eerie with a real feel for the landscape and mythos. It's the perfect Rusty tale." -Roger Dean Miller, author of the popular comedy thriller, "Bombing Hoffman."
