“Clay McLeod Chapman is one of my favorite horror storytellers working today.”—Jordan Peele “Surreal hypnotic unrelenting profoundly claustrophobic and an absolutely scathing sendup of the pitfalls of American divisiveness.”—Keith Rosson author of Fever House From Vulture 's “master of horror” Clay McLeod Chapman a relentless social horror novel about a family on the run from a demonic possession epidemic that spreads through media. Noah Fairchild has been losing his formerly polite Southern parents to far-right cable news for years so when his mother leaves him a voicemail warning him that the “Great Reawakening” is here he assumes it’s related to one of the many conspiracy theories she believes in. But when his own phone calls go unanswered Noah makes the long drive from his home in Brooklyn to Richmond Virginia. There he discovers his childhood home in shambles a fridge full of spoiled food and his parents locked in a terrifying trancelike state in front of the TV. Panicked Noah attempts to snap them out of it and get them medical help. Then Noah’s mother brutally attacks him. But Noah isn’t the only person to be attacked by a loved one. Families across the country are tearing each other apart—literally—as people succumb to a form of possession that gets worse the more time they spend glued to cable news or falling down internet rabbit holes. In Noah’s Richmond-based family only he and his young nephew Marcus are unaffected. Together they must race back to the safe haven of Brooklyn—but can they make it before they fall prey to the violent hordes? This ambitious searing novel from one of horror's modern masters holds a mirror to our divided nation and will shake readers to the core.
