Nightmares That Won't Wake Up

In the affluent community of Corpus Christi, a bizarre environmental disaster has completely destroyed the neighboring town of Bedford, just a few miles away. However, when third-grade schoolteacher Lois Larkin takes the children on a field trip to the site of the disaster, everything changes. In the abandoned woods, a small boy unearths a horror unlike any other. The long, dark night is just beginning, and a malevolent contagion starts to spread, devouring every living soul in Corpus Christi and beyond. The apocalypse approaches in this Bram Stoker Award-winning horror by Sarah Langan, perfect for fans of A. M. Shine and Rebecca Netley. Langan has a sharp eye for the small, vivid details of American life, and her characters are utterly believable. Reminiscent of early Stephen King, this is not for the squeamish.
