THEY THIRST
A novel by the bestselling author of Mine and Swan Song
ROBERT R. McCAMMON
Across the centuries, an evil returns to feast upon the City of Angels -and
millions sway beneath their deadly spell.
On Sunset and Hollywood boulevards, unspeakable horrors lurk in the darkness.
They are the undead, nightmares in human form, dark disciples of death who prey
upon the living.
Now nature succumbs to the evil, raging in a fury of sandstorm and tidal wave.
And in the castle of a murdered screen idol, high above the ravaged city, the
Prince of Darkness and his minions prepare a welcome for the last terrified
survivors.
