The restless rats return in James Herbert's Lair, the second horror novel in the Rats trilogy.
The "Outbreak" was a tragedy London thought it had buried. But deep within the ancient, shadowed groves of Epping Forest, a new terror is feeding. Investigator Lucas Pender - haunted by the family he lost to the first wave of mutants - recognizes the chilling signs: mutilated livestock and an eerie, unnatural silence in the woods. These aren't mere scavengers; they are immense, intelligent predators with a reawakened lust for human blood. Led by a grotesque, two-headed master and a cunning, scarred survivor, the pack begins a coordinated massacre that defies every known poison. As the forest becomes a military slaughterhouse, Pender must plunge into the subterranean darkness to confront a biological horror faster and hungrier than anything humanity has ever faced. The natural order is shifting - and we are no longer at the top. Praise for James Herbert: 'The Rats is splatterpunk deluxe'Stephen King 'Lean, mean, and nasty as punk'
Grady Hendrix 'A one-off; a true horror original'
Peter James
James Herbert was not only Britain's number one bestselling writer of chiller fiction - a position he held ever since the publication of his first novel - but was also one of our greatest popular novelists. Widely imitated and hugely influential, his twenty-three novels have sold more than 54 million copies worldwide and have been translated into more than thirty languages. In 2010, he was made the Grand Master of Horror by the World Horror Convention and was awarded an OBE by the Queen for services to literature. His final novel was Ash. James Herbert died in March 2013.
