Description

WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T LOOK UP... Nathan Underhill is right out at the cutting edge of stem-cell research: attempting to recreate mythological creatures in order to cure medical conditions like Alzheimer's and MS. After five years of research, however, his latest experiment fails, and he loses his funding. But when his wife Grace loses an elderly patient in unusual circumstances, Nathan suspects that somebody has succeeded in breeding mythical hybrids… The couple discover that Doctor Zauber, owner of the local care home, has brought to life one of the most dangerous creatures of medieval times: the basilisk, which could reputedly kill any living thing with a single stare. After Grace narrowly escapes being killed and is put into a coma, Nathan is faced with an impossible dilemma: lose Grace for ever, or enter into an unholy alliance with Zauber to breed more mythological beasts, at the cost of many more human lives. Praise for Graham Masterton: 'One of the most original and frightening storytellers of our time' Peter James 'Suspenseful and tension-filled... all the finesse of a master storyteller' Guardian 'One of Britain's finest horror writers' Daily Mail
