Breed

Mulholland Books presents... BREED

Alex and Leslie Twisden told each other they would do anything to have children. The price didn't matter. But the experimental procedure they found had costs they couldn't foresee.

Adam and Alice Twisden's lives seem perfectly normal. Except that, every night, without fail, their parents lock them into their rooms.

And the twins know that the sounds they can hear are not just their imagination. They're real. And they're getting louder...

From a new name in horror, BREED is a stunning thriller in the vein of Rosemary's Baby, brilliantly written, daring, and unforgettable.

“The best horror novel I've read since Peter Straub's Ghost Story . By turns terrifying and blackly funny, BREED is a total blast.”

Novak puts an innovative spin on the idea that inside every parent lurks a monster, and delivers pulse-racing set pieces as a pervasive sense of dread blossoms into something poisonous....a stylish parable of greed - Financial Times

Delightfully entertaining...redolent of Roald Dahl at his creepy best - Washington Post

Above and beyond its fatality count BREED has originality on its side; the ending is a true shocker. - New York Times
