Something deadly sinister is roaming the mountains of Southern Tennessee and Northern Georgia. A ravenous beast with a thirst for blood and carnage has law enforcement in two states baffled.
From Native American Cherokee mythology, the beast has been named Uya, a malevolent evil spirit of the night.
The rancorous creature has so far outwitted the best the law has to offer, and now the stakes have been raised, as farm animals no longer satisfy Uya's hunger.
An Atlanta Federal Penitentiary inmate on death row may hold the clues to apprehending the vicious fiend. But time is of the essence because Uya has now gorged herself on human blood, flesh, and bones.
Another victim has been taken from its crib.
Will Uya be stopped in time?
You won't want to miss this one!

A really good read with a possible sequel in the
Very unique villain/monster. A really good read with a possible sequel in the future
It's a Masterpiece
The book is set in the mountains of Georgia and Tennesee. The Cherokee Uya looks like the Balinese Barong, it's a frightening spectacle. It's a Night Feeder or a Cherokee evil spirit.
It has all the ingredients of a thriller from what kind of people get lost in the wooded areas, to the types of terrain, the kind of units mobilized, and how to investigate the evidence. He took a bit of poetic license with DNA testing, but I was easily fooled.
The story ponders on the primitive. In Ronnie's world, mountains are ominous full of many creatures that could only have been created with mountains in mind. The book explores how a human can be changed to a degree that itâs animalistic. Hollywood likes to see the beast reformed back into a human. Not in this novelette, the Uya is a total beast to the end.
Simply brilliant!

I don't normally do Horror books or movies, but was intrigued by this unusual looking story. To my surprise this ugly blood thirsty beast "Uya" turns out to have originated from the loins of a human, to be exact a "lady of the night."
The intriguing lines of this story are short and effective. Leaves you wanting to read more. But typical of clever Ron, he always seems to drop a cliffhanger. I am not saying more as I do not want to spoil it for others. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Very original.
Reminiscent of Bigfoot hunter shows
I obtained my copy of this story directly from the author. However, that has not influenced this review. Ron Shaw's basic story in UYA reminds me of paranormal hunter shows like those one finds on Discovery Channel. In contrast to those shows, this tale contains an awesome police procedural twist. It is what you might get if you crossed something like KILLING BIGFOOT with LAW & ORDER. I thoroughly enjoyed the read. Seeing the investigation unfold through the eyes of realistic law enforcement characters, who make sound law enforcement-style decisions, was a definite plus.
if you're like I am
If you want to get scared out of your wits, this is the story for you. Ron Shaw's vivid imagination and descriptive skills will have you looking for Uya any time you're out at night and, if you're like I am, sometimes during the day as well. The story moves along at a steady clip, giving you a plot that keeps you wondering who's going to get it next.
