Author Description

When the raptors come out of sinkholes across the United States, Deandra Antigone Merriweather's elder brother Johnny sees the chaos as opportunity. Overrun by prehistoric beasts of increasing size and savagery, the world has completely gone to hell, but he doesn't suspect it will stay that way, and he wants to be a rich man by the time things get back to normal. Though less optimistic about the future, Deandra thinks it might be a good idea to have some money stashed away just in case, if only so she can one day get away from the abusive Johnny for good. Together, they embark on a perilous journey across the wasteland to rob the mountain home of a corrupt California senator. But the home isn't empty. The senator has stayed behind to live like a king in this post-apocalypse world. With specially trained raptors, his sadistic wife, and sexually stunted son, all manner of misery awaits Deandra within the house's walls. All the while, the outside world crumbles under the trampling feet of monsters long thought extinct.
