Jago
ByPublisher Description
The residents of a sleepy English village are dreaming—and their nightmares are turning into realities—in this “brilliantly nasty” horror novel from the Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Anno Dracula (Sunday Telegraph)
Paul, a young academic composing a thesis about the end of the world, and his girlfriend have come to the tiny English village of Alder for the summer. Their idea of a rural retreat gradually sours as the laws of nature begin to break down around them . . .
It would appear that the annual rock music festival held by the bizarre Agapemone sect is the only thing shattering the peace of Alder. But as the temperature rises, it becomes clear that the tiny village may not be the Heaven on Earth that their leader, Reverend Anthony Jago, is trying to create. Residents’ nightmares are coming true—unleashing creatures from local legend, science fiction, and the dark side of the human mind upon the town.
