About Gorilla:
THE MONSTER IS ALREADY HERE
From the author of the classic true-life haunted house book “The Uninvited” and the terrifying horror-thriller “Glow,” best-selling horror author Steven LaChance presents his most frightening work yet: “Gorilla,” the second book in his Modern Monsters series.
What if the U.S. government’s MK-Ultra drug-and-mind-control experiments never ended but instead fell into the hands of a crazed Christian evangelist named Michael Neville?
Detective Vincent Rossi returns to the shadows of St. Louis, racing against time to stop an experiment that could turn the world upside down. As brutal killings erupt across the city and the boundary between science and nightmare dissolves, Rossi uncovers a conspiracy stretching from classified archives to modern-day manipulation. “Gorilla” unleashes hordes of killers onto the masses and shatters every false sense of security.
Fast-paced, shocking, and unflinching, “Gorilla” isn’t just a story-it’s a warning. The monsters have always been here, lurking in our shadows and inside our minds.
Brace yourself-if you thought “Glow” was scary or “The Uninvited” kept you up at night, you haven’t seen anything yet. Will you listen before it’s too late?
NOW IS THE TIME FOR MONSTERS!
