Publisher's Synopsis
They called it: 'The Craze.'
No one saw it coming. It started with isolated reports of people kidnapping babies and blending them to drink their 'essence'-a highly potent and highly addictive chemical compound found in infants. The phenomenon spread through social media, infecting other addicts. Cases of kidnapping and murder-femicide and infanticide-skyrocketed, leading to governments around the world to issue state of emergencies and strict shelter-at-home orders.
But it was too late.
Society had collapsed into itself.
Now, Brian Turner finds himself trapped in a police station with his family-his wife Leslie, his five-year-old son Cameron, and his newborn daughter Harper-and a group of shellshocked survivors. With their supplies running low and a horde of baby-fiends waiting to strike outside, he must find a way to protect his family and search for a new home away from the carnage and madness.
Jon Athan, the author of The Groomer and Lovesick, presents a disturbing post-apocalyptic vision unlike anything he's written before. Can you survive the Craze?
