"Page after page, Grant delivers maximum chills with minimum prose."--"The Post and Courier," Charleston, South Carolina "One of a small circle of quality authors whose elite numbers include Stephen King, Peter Straub, [and] David Morrell."--"Rocky Mountain News" "A spine-tingling storyteller with a riveting style."--David Morrell

The four novels of the Millennium Quartet reveal the cataclysms that await mankind at the turn of the century and vividly tell of the effects of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse as they sweep across the world, leaving devastation in their wake. In New Orleans a man sits in a musty hotel, waiting. He has lost his wife and child, driven them away with his obsession to interview captured and convicted serial killers. John knows that hidden in his conversations with these men and women, now ghosts preserved only in his tape recordings, are great secrets. Secrets that might unlock the truth about what is happening in the world. John's safe world has become a very dangerous place - a place where entire towns are consumed by insanity overnight, where neighbors murder neighbors over minor insults, where crops fail and animals die in the fields and there are no fish in the fishermen's nets. And if John waits long enough, and listens hard enough to the ghosts in his machine, he might hear the answers that will lead him to his family. Lisse is waiting, too - waiting for John to decide if he loves her or not. Waiting for him to explain the strange phone call he received from a reverend up north, the only survivor of a New Jersey town that immolated itself a few months ago. Reverend Casey said John was "marked, " and though that was all the conversation his doctors would allow, John seemed to understand what Casey meant. Joey isn't waiting anymore. John's young son didn't complain when his mother packed him up and they fled into the night, and he hasn't complained since, not even when they moved from town to town every week, as if they were running away from something. But Joey knows that nowit's time to find his daddy and go home. No matter what his mother says. Something bad is going to happen. It's time for families to be together.
