Description
Chuck Palahniuk returns with a chilling tale of a father searching for his daughter, a young woman with a secret, and a malicious recording that can make the whole world scream at exactly the same time. Private detective Foster Gates is looking for his missing daughter, while sound engineer Mitzi harbours a secret that may help him solve the case. Mitzi creates the dubbed screams used in horror films and action movies, and she is the best in the business. What no one in Hollywood knows is that her screams are harvested from the real, blood-chilling cries of people in their final moments. The technique was first developed by Mitzi’s father, a conflicted serial killer, and she continues it in his memory, compelled to honour his disturbing legacy. Foster soon finds himself on Mitzi’s trail. As she pursues her dark art, Mitzi creates the perfect scream: anyone who hears it mirrors the sound for as long as they listen. The result is a highly contagious seismic event with the potential to bring the country to its knees.
