I'm so stoked right now, after reading this! Great flow. The build up of tension is brilliant, from start to finish,
A couple of wee suggestions/nits:
The beast had been clear about its dimensions: 6x6x6. - a suggestion if I may, Bev. It sounds like the beast's own dimensions. So maybe: The beast had been specific about the dimensions of the hole; 6x6x6.
I love the allusion to the sign of the beast though! Brilliant touch. Reminds me of The Omen - classic horror.
AMAZING confrontation with Billy's spirit, followed by the shoot-out. Just superb. I love the message Billy gave Edward. There's a strong lesson there, Bev.

"The cabin's down () at the end of this lane, Father. - think there's an errant 'is' in there.
His face had reflected the light of a soul approaching peace. - Mmm - love that!
Strange, there's been no trace (of) him.
"It's Rick's shield. Ty. My God, that's who Father Brian's gone after." - I got goose bumps. What a hook to leave us with, Bev.
Another edge-of-the-seat write, my friend. Fantastic work.
Love and hugs,
Av

Excellent writing, Bev. Vivid descriptions and good dialogue. And, although I haven't been following every chapter, I can see what's happening.

Though I reviewed another chapter of this book, I still am not catching up on the story, so I'll judge this by the
clarity of action and image and grammar. Excellent.

Thank you so much, LIJ Red. It is difficult to get into a novel of this length. Even those who've been following sometimes get confused! I appreciate the support.
