A powerful stand-alone from the author of one of my favorite horror trilogies. While it’s a horror story with a lethal sexual parasite, the conventional bits of small-town secrets and domestic strife are the far more intriguing. The horror story almost gets in the way.

After reading your full review on your blog, I definitely want to add this book to my list. What other Moody do you recommend?
I really loved the Hater trilogy. Well, mostly, I really loved Hater, the first book. The series kind of lost a bit of the bloom in the later books. But the first book was astonishing. Another family torn asunder by a mysterious horrific virus-type thing. But man, he really makes the most out of the first person perspective in that first book. I honestly don’t want to write more about it in fears of spoiling it. Check out the descriptions online. I haven’t gotten around to reading the Autumn books yet. So those might also be great. But yeah, Hater, absolutely.
