The star of truTVās hit show Impractical Jokersāalongside veteran sci-fi and horror writer Darren Wearmouthādelivers a chilling and wickedly fun supernatural novel in the vein of The Strain, in which a beautiful new subway line in New York City unearths an ancient dark horror that threatens the cityās utter destruction and the balance of civilization itself.
After years of waiting, New York's newest subway line is finally ready, an express train that connects the city with the burgeoning communities across the Hudson River. The shining jewel of this state-of-the-art line is a breathtaking visitorsā pavilion beneath the river. Major dignitaries, including New York Cityās Mayor and the President of the United States, are in attendance for the inaugural run, as the first train slowly pulls in.
Under the stationās bright ceiling lights, the shiny silver cars gleam. But as the train comes closer into view, a far different scene becomes visible.
All the trainās cars are empty.
All the carsā interiors are drenched in blood.
As chaos descends, all those in the pavilion scramble to get out. But the horror is only beginning. High levels of deadly methane fill the tunnels. The structure begins to flood. For those who donāt drown, choke or spark an explosion, another terrifying danger awaitsāthe thing that killed all those people on the train. Itās out thereā¦and itās coming.
There's something living beneath New York City, and it's not happy we've woken it up.
