My Rating ~ 4 bites and a nibble
An earthquake and a
landslide reveal a hidden treasure. Or is it? Many think the long-buried ship
up on Mount Ararat in Turkey is Noah’s ark. Some aren’t sure what to believe,
but all of the workers laboring on the dig agree that something menacing is
inside this incredible artifact and they’re sure it’s tied to the coffin and
the deformed corpse inside.
Told from many POVs,
this story is a chilling tale of regretting what you wish for. Buried for thousands
of years is truly not long enough for what these people find inside the ark.
Add a blizzard to their woes and now you have a situation not unlike John
Carpenter’s The Thing. Which gave me
nightmares. Thanks, mom, for talking me to the theater to see that when I was
14.
The story is compelling
and the writing pulls you right along with the characters as they deal with
this awesome and terrible discovery. Some things are better left buried.
Forever.
