What this book is about
In the small Maine town of Tranquility, a series of frightening events unfolds: local teenagers are committing random, vicious acts of violence with no apparent motive or memory afterward.

A standalone medical thriller from Tess Gerritsen, combining small-town horror with cutting-edge medical investigation.
