A horror masterpiece.
Can you imagine losing your mind to an ecological phenomenon? Well, James Herbert did and this horror story is the result of that. When a crack in the earth releases a fog that turns anyone it touches homicidal, suicidal, or both, it is a race against time to destroy it before it consumes everyone in England. The set up of the narrative is masterfully crafted to make it a haunting tale that hangs around you. It makes you want to stop reading but also compels you to finish it.
This does contain a lot of sensitive topics, such as rape, child molestation, murder, suicide, and gore, so I would recommend checking for a list of warnings before reading if this isn't your style.
