Read by Cynthia Harris
Now, in his most terrifying novel yet, the author of the New York Times bestsellers Creature, The Blackstone Chronicles, The Presence, and Guardian weaves a spellbinding story of a small California community under siege from an unspeakable evil.
It will be the sweetest kind of homecoming for Karen Spellman. After years of living in Los Angeles, the pretty young widow and her two daughters are leaving urban chaos behind to return to the lush countryside of Karen's childhood: Pleasant Valley, a verdant, fertile place where Karen will rediscover not only the bounty of the land, but love. For Karen is going home to marry her high school sweetheart.
But something sinister awaits the Spellmans. Something as primal as nature itself. Something so hideous it seems not earthy, but shadowy menace once stalked the innocent. Dormant, it waits - waits for summer's heat to shimmer over the valley in a suffocating wave, waits for the arrival of its perfect victim. And now, with the dizzying descent of a nightmare, Karen's homecoming will become a confrontation with terror.
John Saul's first novel, Suffer the Children, published in 1977, was an immediate million-copy bestseller. He has since written twenty-three successive bestselling novels of suspense, including The Manhattan Hunt Club, Nightshade, The Right Hand of Evil, The Presence, Black Lightning, and Guardian. He is also the author of the New York Times bestselling serial thriller The Blackstone Chronicles, initially published in six installments but now available in one complete volume. His most recent novel is Midnight Voices. Mr. Saul divides his time between Seattle, Washington, and Maui, Hawaii.
