Publisher's Synopsis
First contact will be our last
Four teenagers discover a being from another world wounded in the forest. Forget extra-terrestrial invasion-our end lies eighty-thousand years in the past. All it will take to wipe out the last few thousand humans left on prehistoric Earth is a virus-a disease the alien intended to deliver-now unknowingly carried by two of the teenagers.
Two remain in the present and are given extraordinary mental powers to guard over the injured being. A reign of terror begins in their hometown as the teenagers take control-teachers and bullies go missing, abusive parents take their own lives... and the thing in the woods watches.
