A new novel by the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of THE TURTLE
BOY.
On a scorching hot summer day in Elkwood, Alabama, Claire Lambert
staggers naked, wounded, and half-blind away from the scene of an
atrocity. She is the sole survivor of a nightmare that claimed her
friends, and even as she prays for rescue, the killers -- a family
of cannibalistic lunatics -- are closing in.
A soldier suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder returns
from Iraq to the news that his brother is among the murdered in
Elkwood.
In snowbound Detroit, a waitress trapped in an abusive
relationship gets an unexpected visit that will lead to bloodshed
and send her back on the road to a past she has spent years trying
to outrun.
And Claire, the only survivor of the Elkwood Massacre, haunted by
her dead friends, dreams of vengeance... a dream which will be
realized as grief and rage turn good people into cold-blooded
murderers and force alliances among strangers.
It's time to return to Elkwood.
In the spirit of such iconic horror classics as The Texas Chainsaw
Massacre and Deliverance, Kin begins at the end and studies the
possible aftermath for the survivors of such traumas upon their
return to the real world -- the guilt, the grief, the thirst for
revenge -- and sets them on an unthinkable journey... back into the
heart of darkness.
