'48
Author: James Herbert
Publisher: Pan Macmillan
ISBN: 1447294629
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
'48 by international bestseller and Master of Horror, James Herbert, explores a horrifying alternative end to the Second World War. In 1945, Hitler unleashed the Blood Death on Britain as his final act of vengeance. Those who died at once were the lucky ones. The really unfortunate took years. The survivors – people like me, who had the blood group that kept us safe from the disease – were now targets for those who believed our blood could save them. I survived for three years. I lived alone, spending my days avoiding the fascist Blackshirts who wanted my blood for their dying leader. Then I met the others – and life got complicated all over again . . .
