  "My name is Mara, and I want desperately to become a mother."
  
  All of my dreams were dashed when the world was promised hope but instead became a place of danger, death...and monsters.
  
  Nevermores, human but feral and lethal creatures with a thirst for flesh, have arisen from the ashes of human hope. Now co-inhabitants in this new world, I am gaining ground in my understanding of them just as I am forced to face a new threat from the local militia.
  
  Led by a man with a taste for torture and a love of suffering, Sebastian and I are confronted with the seemingly impossible obstacle of escape. Caged and kept from our allies, our opportunities for freedom dwindle.
  
  There is only one way to save us both. I am forced to unearth and embrace the dark side of my heart. I must decide who the more dangerous enemy is: the Nevermores or what remains of mankind.
  
  I am bound to fight as though I am one of the monsters I hoped I’d never become.

  A novel of compelling suspense. Professor James Lowry didn't believe in spirits, or witches, or demons. Not until a gentle spring evening when his hat disappeared, and suddenly he couldn't remember the last four hours of his life. Now, the quiet university town of Atworthy is changing — slightly at first, then faster and more frighteningly each time he tries to remember. Lowry is pursued by a dark, secret evil that is turning his whole world against him while it whispers a warning from the shadows: If you find your hat you'll find your four hours. If you find your four hours then you will die....A classic tale of creeping, surreal menace and horror... one of the really, really good ones. — Stephen King
