What Castle Rock does for Maine, Monsters in the Green Mountains does for Vermont.

For the Langlois family—Rick, Marion, and their 10-year-old son, Jude—the remote camping trip offered a way to reconnect. But when Marion goes missing Rick and Jude rush to find her...and discover something more sinister than they could have imagined.

Vernon Heath is a dyed-in-the-wool Vermonter, poacher, and man on a mission. What he hunts now isn’t for the dinner table though. These creatures are deadly. Vernon and a handful of others enter the woods to end a centuries-old curse and protect future generations. But are they too late?

The Pact is the fourth in the “Monsters in the Green Mountain” series, all of which can be read as stand-alone novels. The series has been called, “terrifying,” and “page-turning” by readers. All of the books are set in the remote wilderness of Vermont and feature folklore, supernatural elements, and pulse-pounding action.

"I know what I'm getting with your books, but this was terrifying." -Helen B., early reviewer

Spooky, Gross and Fun!

Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2021

Verified Purchase

This is the first book I’ve read by this author, and I was starting in the middle of a sort of series...so this is where I’m coming from with my review.

Most of the book is about the Langlois family—mom, dad and middle school son—who go on a weekend camping trip and end up in a fight for their lives against giant man-eating bats. I loved the depiction of the family...all very believably drawn characters, with issues that are making for a messy home life. The son, especially, rang true for me in his thoughts and actions.

It was spooky and gross at times, but I like that kind of thing. So if you like dark caves, a bit of gore, and suspense, this is for you. I would call it an enjoyable read in a very easy style.

My only complaint was the entrance of other characters into the narrative who are part of the series aspect, but seemed a bit shoehorned in. I felt a little bit displaced from the Langlois story and didn’t really get the flow there. But, it did seem as if Choquette was providing some closure to the series storylines that I was unfamiliar with, so maybe for a reader who has read all of the books, it would work better than it did for me.

Had a very satisfying ending with the Langlois family improving their relationship after such a scary situation.

Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2022

When I first saw the cover for The Pact by J.P. Choquette, I loved it. The cover was also a clear warning about what I was in for, namely bats and more bats—and the wonderful, chilling thrills of a scary movie or a campfire tale. I was not disappointed in the least. The Pact is a deliciously spine-tingling, action filled novel about a camping trip to the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont gone wrong. There is a fun cast of characters, each with their own backstories and troubles, and their own connection to the mythic bats of Groton. The Pact is the perfect creepy read for a summer camping trip. In places it reminded me of Stephen King’s novel The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon, except in this book there’s no question whether the evil is real or not. The question is will anyone survive?

A Nightmarish Story of Survival

Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2020

Let me start by saying I don’t like bats. Sure, they’re good for the environment. They pollinate and eat tons of pesky insects. But have you ever seen their faces up close? Yikes! In the notes at the end of The Pact, author J.P. Choquette explains that she actually likes the little critters. Despite her fondness, though, she decided to create a nightmarish story of survival featuring—you guessed it—bats.

And as if that wasn’t enough, the author sets the story in the scary woods of Vermont. Now, I don’t know about you. But the woods kind of creep me out. And when you add a moist, dark cave? Fuggedaboutit. That said, seeing the Langlois family struggling to escape preternatural forces bent on their destruction makes for a fun story. And thank goodness, it’s only a story.

If you like reading about other people fighting weird monsters, then check out The Pact. Oh, and you may want to rethink that next camping trip.
