A dark and dirty horror novel from David Moody, author of HATER and AUTUMN Either there’s a serial killer loose in Thussock, or something far worse... A spate of brutal murders occurs in and around the small town of Thussock. The bodies of the dead – savagely mutilated, unspeakably defiled – are piling up with terrifying speed. There are no apparent motives and no obvious connections between the victims, but the killings only began when Scott Griffiths and his family arrived in town... “In his evocation of fear and unease and the speed with which he grips you, he brings to mind old Brit horror writer James Herbert. And that is some recommendation.” — London Lite “Moody has the power to make the most mundane and ordinary characters interesting and believable and is reminiscent of Stephen King at his finest.” — Shadowlocked "Moody is as imaginative as Barker, as compulsory as King, and as addictive as Palahniuk." — Scream the Horror Magazine

David Moody first released Hater in 2006, and without an agent, succeeded in selling the film rights for the novel to Mark Johnson (producer, Breaking Bad) and Guillermo Del Toro (director, The Shape of Water, Pan's Labyrinth). Moody's seminal zombie novel Autumn was made into a movie starring Dexter Fletcher and David Carradine. He has an unhealthy fascination with the end of the world and likes to write books about ordinary folks going through absolute hell. With the publication of continuing Hater and Autumn stories, Moody has cemented his reputation as a writer of suspense-laced SF/horror, and "farther out" genre books of all description.
