About this audiobook
The acclaimed national bestseller that is āold-school horror at its bestā (Stephen King) follows a scout troop as it is unexpectedly caught up in an isolating and utterly terrifying fight for their lives.
Once every year, Scoutmaster Tim Riggs leads a troop of boys into the Canadian wilderness for a weekend camping tripāa tradition as comforting and reliable as a good ghost story around a roaring bonfire. But when an unexpected intruder stumbles upon their campsiteāshockingly thin, disturbingly pale, and voraciously hungryāTim and the boys are exposed to something far more frightening than any tale of terror. The human carrier of a bioengineered nightmare. A horror that spreads faster than fear. A harrowing struggle for survival with no escape from the elements, the infectedā¦or one another.

Great book, I liked the small twist regarding one of the scouts. There were two parts that were hard for me to get though but that's what makes this good horror.
