SUMMARY:
Reminiscent of the best novels of Stephen King and Dean Koontz, AFRAID is the first novel from Headline's newest thriller author. The idyllic town of Safe Haven , Wisconsin is a blueprint for your average mid-Western U.S. town - friendly, law-abiding and peaceful, you couldn't find a nicer place to live. Then during one long night, everything changes. A troop of elite and ruthless international soldiers crash land in the town and it becomes immediately apparent to some of its inhabitants that the soldiers are bent on destruction. Terrifyingly ruthless, trained in unimaginable tortures and implanted with a computer chip outlining their mission, their only goals are to isolate, terrorize and annihilate their way to their quarry. Only then will their mission be complete. As the townspeople start to die in shockingly vicious and gruesome ways, the US government quarantines the town, and its remaining inhabitants are left with only one choice if they want to survive the night fight back or die trying. Unputdownable, addictive, and shocking, AFRAID is a heart-poundingly, adrenalin-fuelled novel guaranteed to send chills down your spine.
