England 1562. Elizabeth's court is besieged by scandal and Catholic plots, when a young German prince arrives in England claiming to be the son of Henry VIII and Anne of Cleves - and so the rightful King. His letters, looks, and jewels seem to prove his case.

    Kyle Murchison Booth, archivist at the Parrington Museum, has heard of Thirdhop Scarp. Everyone has. The house has been notorious ever since the night that homeowner J. A. Cathcart murdered his entire family, and was found cupping the heart of his eldest daughter in his hands as tenderly as he would a wounded bird. 
     
     
     
    It is not the first time the house has experienced unsettling events. And it will not be the last. 
     
     
     
    Now the new owner of Thirdhop Scarp, one Marcus Oleander, is gathering an esoteric order at the house, including Miss Griselda Parrington, daughter of the museum's founder. The museum director demands that Mr. Booth discredit Oleander's occult teachings and end his influence over the credulous Miss Parrington. Reluctantly, Mr. Booth joins the weekend séance. 
     
     
     
    In the beautiful but eerie surrounds of the house and gardens, Mr. Booth is drawn into an investigation that spans years—and reveals the house to be much, much more than it seems . . .

    The survivors call it The Molting. It spread across the planet faster than anyone could anticipate, turning people into bloodthirsty creatures, abominations of nature. Now Molters swarm every landscape, hunting the few remaining humans to extinction. 
    Former Army grunt Jonah Browne helps his family survive the only way he knows how: hunting down what hunts them from a secluded cabin in the remote German Mountains. But when the sanctity of their home is threatened, he brings family and other survivors together for a desperate mission. 
    With the Molter horde closing in on them from all sides, members of the sparse convoy must reach the north or die trying. 
    The road won’t be easy. The survivors have limited fuel and supplies, and Germany is a hot zone. Only grit, gut-wrenching sacrifices, and unfaltering determination will keep them alive. 
    Luckily Jonah spent years stockpiling ammo. They’re going to need every single bullet.
