Stressed-out single mother Vivian has to fetch twelve-year old son Kody from an overnight after he gets into a fight with the friend he was spending the night with. On the way home she nearly runs over a man out for a night jog. Who ends up being run over in front of her house. When a police officer very quickly responds he shows little sympathy for the injured man, instead drawing his gun. But the jogger kills the officer first. Vivian calls for help, then flees her house with her son. Thus begins a long gory night as Vivian is hunted down by demons intent on her destruction. As the reasons for this come into focus, an extremely weird relationship develops between Vivian and her possessed son who is on the brink of death. Forget Norman Bates. This mother-son relationship is more twisted than the Gordian Knot.
This was a fast paced, gore drenched tale of demonic possession on the run. The supermoon has allowed demons to wreak havoc on earth. They not only possess humans but can jump from one body to the next, even taking over wild and domestic animals should the need arise. I can't say that it was scary, but there was lots of action and splattery blood soaked fun. I do think it could have benefited from a bit of editing, but all in all it is worth a read.
