About this ebook
A self-proclaimed psychic investigates a deadly plague that creates talking corpses in this chilling horror novel by the author of Blind Panic.
Virus expert Anna Grey is disturbed when a dying patient is wheeled past her lab vomiting fountains of blood and screaming like a banshee. To make matters worse, when she examines the man’s corpse, she could swear she hears him whisper: “Get it out of me.” John Patrick Bridges is dead. He’s definitely dead. But if he’s dead—how is he talking?
Anna wonders if she’s going mad. But then a second man hemorrhages and dies; yet Anna hears him whisper, “Please help me.”
There is no such thing as demons, Anna tells herself. But cynical fortune-teller Harry Erskine knows otherwise, and a series of extremely disturbing events are forcing him from his Miami home towards the bereaved Anna, who does not yet know the evil she is facing . . .
