THE DISCIPLE is the terrifying new thriller from the author of Radio 2 Book Club pick THE STRING DIARIES - for readers who loved THE GIRL WITH ALL THE GIFTS and Stephen King's THE STAND.
They are coming...
On a storm-battered road at the edge of the Devil's Kitchen, a woman survives a fatal accident and gives birth to a girl who should never have lived.
The child's protection lies in the hands of Edward Schwinn - a loner who must draw himself out of darkness to keep her safe - and her arrival will trigger a chain of terrifying events that no one can explain.
She is a child like no other, being hunted by an evil beyond measure.
For if the potential within her is realised, nothing will be the same. Not for Edward. Not for any who live to see it.
