Tomato Fields by Tim Moon

The bizarre disappearance and subsequent slaughter of a rural pet launches a small town sheriff, his deputy, and a band of tormented townsfolk, on the daunting task of eliminating an ominous threat posed by a mysterious creature. The terror they face will challenge many of their beliefs about themselves and the world they thought they knew. The more they learn the less they understand, as tension mounts toward a final dramatic collision with destiny. Even in success, closure proves elusive.
