Thriller writer J.A. Konrath, author of the Lt. Jack Daniels series, digs into the vaults and unearths a technohorror tale from the depths of hell…

  1906–Something is discovered by workers digging the Panama Canal. Something dormant. Sinister. Very much alive.

  2009–Project Samhain. A secret underground government installation begun 103 years ago in New Mexico. The best minds in the world have been recruited to study the most amazing discovery in the history of mankind. But the century of peaceful research is about to end.

  Because it just woke up.

  When linguist Andrew Dennison is yanked from his bed by the Secret Service and taken to a top secret facility in the desert , he has no idea he’s been brought there to translate the words of an ancient demon.

  He joins pretty but cold veterinarian Sun Jones, eccentric molecular biologist Dr. Frank Belgium, and a hodge-podge of religious, military, and science personnel to try and figure out if the creature is, indeed, Satan.

  But things quickly go bad, and very soon Andy isn’t just fighting for his life, but the lives of everyone on earth…

  ORIGIN by J.A. Konrath

  All hell is about to break loose. For real.

  TRAPPED

  TERRIFIED…

  It was supposed to be a harmless camping trip. Six wayward teenagers who’d run into trouble with the law, and their court-appointed guardians, Sara and Martin Randhurst. Three nights on a small, deserted island off of Michigan’s upper peninsula. A time to bond, to learn, to heal.

  Then Martin told a campfire story about the island’s history. Of the old civil war prison hidden in there, and the starving confederate soldiers who resorted to cannibalism to stay alive. Everyone thought it was funny. They even laughed when Martin pretended to be dragged off into the woods.

  But Martin didn’t come back. And neither did Sara when she went in search of him.

  Then the laughter stopped.

  …TO DEATH

  The group soon began to realize that this deserted island wasn’t so deserted after all. And perhaps Martin’s ridiculous story had more truth to it than anyone thought.

  What’s the most horrifying thing you can imagine?

  This is a hundred times worse…
