Thriller Psychological
On a searing summer Friday, Eddie Chapman has been stuck
for hours in a traffic jam. There are accidents along the
highway, but ambulances and police are conspicuously
absent. When he decides to abandon his car and run home,
he sees that the trees along the edge of a stream have
been burnt, and the water in the streambed is gone.
Something is very wrong. When he arrives home, the power is out and there is no
running water. The pipes everywhere, it seems, have gone
dry. Eddie and his wife, Laura, find themselves thrust
together with their neighbors while a sense of unease
thickens in the stifling night air. Thirst takes place in the immediate aftermath of a
mysterious disaster--the Chapmans and their neighbors
suffer the effects of the heat, their thirst, and the
terrifying realization that no one is coming to help. As
violence rips through the community, Eddie and Laura are
forced to recall secrets from their past and question
their present humanity. In crisp and convincing prose,
Ben Warner compels readers to do the same. What might you
do to survive?
