Book overview
In the vein of Justin Cronin and Guillermo del Toro, this terrifying apocalyptic horror novel imagines a world where every child dies--then returns hungry for blood, forcing their parents to make impossible, devastating choices.
It begins on an ordinary day: children around the world are dying. All children, everywhere--a global crisis beyond any parent's worst nightmare. Then, a miracle beyond imagining: three days later, they return. Shattered mothers and fathers see their sons and daughters happy and whole once more, playing and laughing as before--but only when they feed. They hunger for blood...and they can't get enough upon which to feast. Without it, they die again.
How far would you go to keep someone you love alive?
