Soon

By Lois Murphy

Book Overview

A haunted Australian town is left to rot in isolation, in this gripping debut horror novel with "a similar energy and dread as that found in Josh Malerman's Bird Box" (Kirkus Reviews).

"Beautifully written." --Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts

On winter solstice, the birds disappeared, and the mist arrived.

The inhabitants of Nebulah quickly learn not to venture out after dark. But it is hard to stay indoors: cabin fever sets in, and the mist can be beguiling, too.

Eventually only six remain. Like the rest of the townspeople, Pete has nowhere else to go. After he rescues a stranded psychic from a terrible fate, he's given a warning: he will be dead by solstice unless he leaves town--soon.

An intense, atmospheric horror novel in the vein of Richard Matheson and John Wyndham, Lois Murphy's debut takes readers inside a nightmarish world that will make you question the very nature of your reality.
