Opis

An Alien Invasion-Born of the Grave Nobody's Happy When The Dead Come Home It begins with a meteorite crashing into a rural trout stream, releasing thousands of tiny eggs. The fish consume the eggs, humans consume the fish, and the eggs harmlessly embed themselves in stomach linings, where they lie dormant until the death, by natural or accidental causes, of the consumers. One year after burial, the dead in a rural Appalachian town are burrowing out of their graves and returning to their earthly homes--with deadly consequence for their loved ones. As the terror spreads, a claustrophobic mining engineer, a female entomologist, and their team must enter the dank confines of a long- abandoned coal mine to attempt to destroy a hybrid alien that threatens to transform life on earth. The author, a former coal mining engineer, draws upon his never-forgotten childhood dreams and nightmares and a life-long fascination with insects to create a uniquely Appalachian science fiction/horror story of first contact with an alien life form.
