The Sighting by Christopher Coleman
3.0
A short but intense read about a man's encounter with a man-shaped monster, rising out of the sea at dawn one day.
It was ok, quite well-written, but the plot lacked something. I just didn't get the protagonist's reaction to the loss of one of the other characters, and I didn't get why the nasty lady - Lynn - had deified the monster to such an extent. It was implied that the monster was somehow controlling or influencing her, but how, if it only appeared one every 14 months? Didn't make sense to me.
3.5 stars.
