Infestation — John F.D. Taff

Ben Bradley works for a typical midwestern American city that is falling apart just as his own family is, too. As he tries to put his family back together, his city embarks on a dramatic new housing redevelopment plan that will change its face. But there are so many undesirables that have to be gotten rid of first. The current residents. And the pests. A shadowy figure comes to town with the promise of ridding the city of its unwanted. First, the vermin disappear. Then the homeless. Then the children. To save his family and his city, Bradley must face a legendary foe with a thousand years of experience in extermination. Praise for Stoker-Nominated Author John F.D. Taff"Taff's prose shines in a longer format." Gabino Iglesias, Reviewer at HorrorTalk.com and Author of Gutmouth."John F.D. Taff really knows how to deliver!" Ann Hale, Horror Editor, Pop-Break.com."Taff brings the pain." Bram Stoker Award-Winning Author Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of Code Zero and Fall Of Night"John Taff is a standout talent. Literary, affecting, chilling, and indicative of that old-school mentality meets new-school daring, you need look no further than this collection for evidence that not only is horror not dead, there are new proponents of the craft among us more than capable of giving it the jolt it needs to carry it into the future." Kealan Patrick Burke, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Turtle Boy, Kin, and Jack & Jill.
