Synopsis

Professor Colin Ayres has spent years researching the strange story of Galina, Arizona, a sleepy border town ripped apart by violence and paranoia after the outbreak of a mysterious illness in 1960. Colin is certain the Galina Incident was simply a case of mass hysteria. But when his partner, Alonzo, starts exhibiting strange symptoms, Colin is shocked to realize they are the same as those that emerged in Galina decades ago.
As Alonzo’s condition worsens, Colin scrambles to piece together what really happened during that terrible summer in the past. He uncovers a story of murder, corruption, and fanaticism. The deeper he digs, the more he becomes convinced that what happened in Galina wasn’t mass hysteria after all.
When others start to develop the same eerie symptoms, Colin must confront the possibility that someone—or something—is driving the plague. Guided by rumors of a person who found a way to stop the plague in the sixties, Colin races to find answers before the disease destroys Alonzo and everyone else it touches.

I don’t really enjoy science fiction in general. I feel like I’m not quite smart enough to understand it and frankly, a lot of science fiction doesn’t interest me. This book was different. Not only was it fascinating and compulsively readable, it didn’t make me feel inadequate. I understood it! Supe......more

Goodreads review by Irene Well Worth A Read on February 27, 2020

Told on 2 timelines, 1960 and the present day this is a tale that straddles the line between horror and scifi. It was 1960 when the Red Hail fell in Galina and the town was forever changed. Men, women, children, and animals were soon afflicted with mysterious and frightening symptoms. Racists and rel......more
