Well written, suspenseful horror/thriller

Rolf Kirst, a German submariner, is the only survivor of his sunken U-boat. He bobs in the cold water of the Atlantic Ocean searching for a way to survive. Debris from a boat Kirst's crew had sunk moments before the U-boat was hit, floated by. Luckily for him one of the pieces was a crate. He pries off the lid, cleans out its contents and climbs in. He finds a silver flask in the crate and gulps down the contents and immediately something strange begins to happen to him. In New York, Loring Holloway, a museum curator, finds out the ship carrying ancient artifacts from Babylon, has sunk. Fear grips her as she knew exactly what was in the flask, because she had recovered it from a dig years earlier. Rolf Kirst is at a POW camp in Montana at the base of Blackbone Mountain. His strange behavior does not endear him to his fellow prisoners. Their dislike soon turns to hatred and fear as men begin dying and Kirst is at the center of it all. Loring Holloway follows Kirst to the POW camp to confirm her worst fears, that she has unleashed an ancient being whose only desire is to kill and destroy and if she can't find a way to stop it, the entire world is at risk. Blackbone is a well written suspenseful horror/thriller that will keep you turning the pages to find out what happens next. The story is well laid out. The WWII backdrop adds an interesting dimension to the horror aspect of it. The descriptive scenes with the demon are handled very well, especially how the soldier Rolf Kirst feels with it inside of him. The characters are well drawn with the possible exception of Loring Holloway where a little more detail could have been provided but not knowing a lot about her didn't effect the story in any way.
