Loud About Loathing

Trudy Masters is looking for love as the isolated northern Wisconsin town of Creekside closes in around her. With nothing holding her there but a crap job at a dive diner, one friend who isn't even the same species, and a big secret to keep, that isn't enough-she wants out. But while Trudy seeks escape, others want in, including backwoods hunters searching for a mysterious creature, a young man with healing powers, and a father who abandoned her before birth.

Does Reverend Jay Masters care about his daughter, or only finding the next big exhibit for his museum of oddities? Will the mythical Rhinelander Hodag end up on display, or will the hunt for the beast reveal something so astounding that it changes the world forever?

From the roller coasters and water parks of Wisconsin Dells, to the pine and birch forests of the Badger State, battles will rage and what once was hidden will be revealed.
