About this audiobook
First, the flash. A glare of light, just before dawn, followed by utter darkness. A vast blanketing nothingness that covers the whole Earth.
Then, the disappearances begin. Friends and strangers alike, swallowed by the darkness.… A lucky few are returned, but they are altered, changed.
For the people of Jesman's Bend, it feels like the end of the world. But this is only the very start.
"To be read and shared and loved." -Joe Hill
"As intensely menacing and gruesome as any George Romero film.… A virtuoso tour de force." -Ramsey Campbell
"A riveting read." -The Guardian
