THE NIGHT PARADE: A NOVEL
Book ID/图书代码: 14780015B86303
English Summary/英文概要: First the birds disappeared.
Then the insects took over.
Then the madness began . . .
They call it Wanderer’s Folly--a disease of delusions, of daydreams and nightmares. A plague threatening to wipe out the human race.
After two years of creeping decay, David Arlen woke up one morning thinking that the worst was over. By midnight, he’s bleeding and terrified, his wife is dead, and he’s on the run in a stolen car with his eight-year-old daughter, who may be the key to a cure.
Ellie is a special girl. Deep. Insightful. And she knows David is lying to her. Lying about her mother. Lying about what they’re running from. And lying about what he sees when he takes his eyes off the road . . .

Awards/获奖情况:The novel was just featured in Publishers Weekly Best Spring 2016 Adult novels – named in the Top 10 Horror genre along novels such as Joshua Gaylord’s When We Were Animals and Paul Tremblay’s A Head Full of Ghosts. This is not a straight horror novel though – Malfi focuses more on the emotionality of the characters that are struggling through these dire and near-apocalyptic circumstances.
“David Arlen watches a present-day America falls prey to Wanderer’s Folly, a disease that addles the mind shortly before a gruesome death…Creepy.” - Publishers Weekly
