The Reverend Jonathan Taylor finds himself fighting for his life - and his very humanity - in a world suddenly gone mad. Skyrocketing news reports of random acts of violence around the globe, rumors of a deadly virus gone airborne and a spike in seismic activity seem far removed from the small town in South Carolina where Jonathan leads his well-ordered life. But as the world loses its grip on self-control, Jonathan realized he, too, is susceptible to the madness gripping the world's population, a madness that is like the awakening of a horrifying inner beast.

After the apocalypse... When civilization collapses, can the few who survive rebuild? Or will the beast that was unleashed reign forever? One man emerges determined to carve a safe haven out of the chaos, only to discover that he must fight for his vision of a world in which humanity can be salvaged. Follow the story of Jonathan Taylor as he tries to pick up the pieces of his life, his spirit ad his heart in the eagerly-awaited sequel to "What Rough Beast."
