| Summary |
The International Bestseller "An apocalyptic extravaganza of doom and heroism…addictive." -Publishers Weekly "This is a fresh take on classic horror, thoroughly enjoyable and guaranteed to leave your skin crawling." -Michael Koryta, New York Times bestselling author of Those Who Wish Me Dead "Guaranteed to do what Jaws did to millions of people." -Suspense Magazine An astonishingly inventive and terrifying debut novel about the emergence of an ancient species, dormant for over a thousand years, and now on the march. Deep in the jungle of Peru, where so much remains unknown, a black, skittering mass devours an American tourist whole. Thousands of miles away, an FBI agent investigates a fatal plane crash in Minneapolis and makes a gruesome discovery. Unusual seismic patterns register in a Kanpur, India earthquake lab, confounding the scientists there. During the same week, the Chinese government "accidentally" drops a nuclear bomb in an isolated region of its own country. As these incidents begin to sweep the globe, a mysterious package from South America arrives at a Washington, D.C. laboratory. Something wants out. The world is on the brink of an apocalyptic disaster. An ancient species, long dormant, is now very much awake. |
