He's not a detective and he doesn't give a crap if your spouse is cheating on you. Human and supernatural beings avoid him like the plague because if you get too close he'll gleefully tell you the time and date of your own demise and that's before he punches you in the face. For nearly one hundred years, Tim Reaper (yes, that's what he calls himself) has been living as a fixer, a rum runner, an enforcer and occasionally, a gumshoe. He hasn't aged a day because of his habit of borrowing the bodies of the recently deceased. (A convenient trick when you're on the lam.) Banished to the human world for tinkering with the natural order of life and death, he's kept himself busy with a peculiar hobby: ending the lives of murderers and serial killers alike. Except now, the bodies are piling up in Mexico City, Boston and the port city of Halifax. In fact, someone just found a corpse at the shipping terminal and it's not entirely human. Called on by the Holy See to put an end to the madness, Reaper is about to learn that this particular serial killer has a hate-on for heavenly bodies and even the Supreme Being will pay the bounty if it means saving humanity from the abyss.
David Simmons is on a mission to save his eight-year-old sister. In a smoldering world infested with walking cadavers, the survivors of Simmons infantry reserve unit are going hatches down in a pair of armoured personnel carriers and everyone knows that it's only a matter of time until their fuel runs dry. There's more than a thousand miles of biting, unforgiving cold, armed survivalists and legions of the living dead standing in their way. They're outgunned, outnumbered and out of time. This tense thriller offers a terrifying and brutal vision of survival in a post-apocalyptic world where the bonds of friendship and family are the only things left that are worth fighting for.
Imagine what might happen if a supernatural killing machine walked the earth. What if raw, bestial howling filled the air beneath the light of a full moon? Now imagine being stalked by a creature that resembles a wolf but is as large as a full-grown brown bear. A creature with a face and fangs out of your worst nightmare. A beast that only knows hunting and killing in the most savage manner possible. Just imagine ... What would witnesses say about what they've just seen? What might survivors of a werewolf attack have to say knowing that they themselves will become a monster? And what about science? Is there any data on a phenomenon that no scholar or scientist can even agree exists? Is there legal standing for a creature that only lives and breathes for a few hours each month? What about the legal standing of the human host? How far might government go to hide evidence that werewolves existed? Are there stories from the past about the monsters? How could folklore become blood-soaked fact? Where do werewolves come from in the first place? City, town, or village, rural or in the north, a monster is hungry, and you just might be on the menu.
