Now, with an approaching blizzard, a strange transport ship has crashed along the frozen shoreline--its escaped cargo genetically engineered for only one purpose... Death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHowling winds hide the screams of townsfolk, as retired biology teacher Ken Jardine leads a small group to first understand and then destroy what they're dealing with, before the storm gives the upper hand to the Live Specimens...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFROM THE AUTHOR\u003cbr\u003eThis book is outside my norm. Not a quiet horror or suspenseful thriller at all, but rather, an intentional bloodbath. If you like gore and guts, rather than character studies, then this--my homage to the pulp horror of the 80s--is right up your alley!
