Rain: a novel of disaster, survival ... and monsters

by Brad Munson

Overview

It never rains in the tiny desert town of Dos Hermanos, California ... never. Until today, when the sky opens up and it starts to rain ... and will not STOP. For the next 24 hours, the 3,071 residents struggle just to stay alive as the town dissolves around them. And then THINGS start to come out of the rain -- eyeless, skinless creatures, all bones and talons, with a violent hatred of every living thing and a bottomless, unquenchable thirst. An exiled programmer and his street-addict daughter, his desperately unhappy ex-wife, two scientists -- one mad and one just mean -- and a waitress/stripper with a strange power all her own will each confront the creatures and the storm itself, fighting just to live through the next three days. And meanwhile the creatures keep coming -- a thousand different shapes and sizes, some as small as a golf ball made from razors, some as large as a mountain made of claws. And they all share a single desire: the death of anything remotely human. Some will become heroes; some will go mad. And a small handful of survivors will try to stop the impossible, ongoing creation of the monsters before it breaks out of the remote village and kills the whole world. Who will live? Who will die? And who will learn the secret waiting in The Rain? Find out in a a novel of supernatural adventure and suspense -- a story of disaster and survival ... with monsters.
