Description:
Another attacker, his unshaven face gaunt and filthy, noticed the videographer and turned toward the camera, his expression a snarl of hunger and anger.
A horrific disease threatens to turn the entire human race into the stuff of nightmares in Michael Andre McPherson's heart-pounding debut novel, Sacrifice the Living. This first book in The 1,000 Souls series is an epic saga full of blood-sucking mobs, a desperate bid for survival, and a climactic showdown that changes everything.
As fewer people show up for the day shift at work, the stock and housing markets crash, and the whole city of Chicago seems to emerge only at night, Bertrand Allan realizes something is very wrong.
Amid rumors of vampires, he learns the horrifying truth: a disease that infects people with parasites is turning the masses into "rippers"-semihumans who must drink blood in order to feed the parasites. It's spreading by way of "Vlad the Scourge," who is determined to create a new world by infecting more than half the human population with the parasite.
Building up a citizen army, Bertrand sets out to destroy "Vlad the Scourge" in a violent showdown that readers won't soon forget.
