Stay cool.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo one knows exactly when it began or where it originated. A terrifying new plague is spreading like wildfire across the country, striking cities one by one: Boston, Detroit, Seattle. The doctors call it Draco Incendia Trychophyton. To everyone else it's Dragonscale, a highly contagious, deadly spore that marks its hosts with beautiful black and gold marks across their bodies--before causing them to burst into flames. Millions are infected; blazes erupt everywhere. There is no antidote. No one is safe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHarper Grayson, a compassionate, dedicated nurse as pragmatic as Mary Poppins, treated hundreds of infected patients before her hospital burned to the ground. Now she's discovered the telltale gold-flecked marks on her skin. When the outbreak first began, she and her husband, Jakob, had made a pact: they would take matters into their own hands if they became infected. To Jakob's dismay, Harper wants to live--at least until the fetus she is carrying comes to term. At the hospital, she witnessed infected mothers give birth to healthy babies and believes hers will be fine too. . . if she can live long enough to deliver the child.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConvinced that his do-gooding wife has made him sick, Jakob becomes unhinged, and eventually abandons her as their placid New England community collapses in terror. The chaos gives rise to ruthless Cremation Squads--armed, self-appointed posses roaming the streets and woods to exterminate those who they believe carry the spore. But Harper isn't as alone as she fears: a mysterious and compelling stranger she briefly met at the hospital, a man in a dirty yellow fire fighter's jacket, carrying a hooked iron bar, straddles the abyss between insanity and death. Known as The Fireman, he strolls the ruins of New Hampshire, a madman afflicted with Dragonscale who has learned to control the fire within himself, using it as a shield to protect the hunted . . . and as a weapon to avenge the wronged.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the desperate season to come, as the world burns out of control, Harper must learn the Fireman's secrets before her life--and that of her unborn child--goes up in smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joe Hill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e William Morrow Large Print\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/07\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 1152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 1.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780062440235\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLarge Print\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHill, Joe:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJoe Hill \u003c\/strong\u003eis the #1 \u003cem\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/em\u003ebestselling author of novels (\u003cem\u003eKing Sorrow\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe Fireman\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eNOS4A2\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eHorns\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eHeart-Shaped Box\u003c\/em\u003e), fiction collections (\u003cem\u003eStrange Weather\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eFull Throttle\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003e20\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eth\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e Century Ghosts\u003c\/em\u003e), and a comic-book series (\u003cem\u003eLocke \u0026amp; Key\u003c\/em\u003e).
