Firefighter

Winner of the «Locus» and «Goodreads» awards in the «Horror Novel» category — the latest book by Joe Hill, author of «Locke & Key», «The Black Phone» and «Nosferatu». The world is burning in the fire of a new pandemic. A mysterious disease is affecting people. The main symptom — skin rashes, and the outcome is fatal — spontaneous combustion of the patient. Medical professionals and governments are overwhelmed. Volunteer lynchers carry out executions at the first signs of the disease. But there is a Firefighter, a hero who has learned to control his illness. «The book is adventurous and captivating — yet at the same time brutal and terrifying. But by no means hopeless, not dark, despite the flames raging on the pages and the black columns of human ash rising to the heavens.» — G.L. Oldi «Original and gripping, I can't put it down!» — George R.R. Martin «An excellent supernatural thriller!» — Publishers Weekly «A true apocalypse, you feel it in your very gut!» — Guardian
