“Master of the macabre”* Bentley Little is back with an irresistible invitation...Welcome to The Resort.
The Reata is an exclusive spa isolated in the Arizona desert—a perfect getaway from the city for people like Lowell Thurman and his family, booked for a relaxing five-day retreat. But what unfolds is anything but tranquil...unnerving encounters with strange employees, wild parties in empty rooms, something unspeakable in the pool. Then one by one, guests begin disappearing. The Thurmans are afraid—because out in the middle of nowhere, with no escape, and no one to hear them scream, they’re left with only one terrifying choice: unlock the dark secrets of The Reata themselves before the real carnage begins.

Praise for Bram Stoker Award-Winning Author Bentley Little
“The horror poet laureate...a master of the macabre!”—Stephen King
“[Bentley Little is] on par with such greats as Stephen King, Clive Barker, and Peter Straub.”—Midwest Book Review
“Little possesses the uncanny ability to take everyday situations and turn them into nightmares.”—Publishers Weekly
“Little has the unparalleled ability to evoke surreal, satiric terror.”—Horror Reader
Bentley Little is the author of numerous novels, short stories, articles, essays, and reviews.

His first novel, The Revelation, won the 1990 Horror Writers Association Bram Stoker Award for best first novel.
