On the morning that will mark the end of the world they have known, Molly <br />
and Neil Sloan awaken to the drumbeat of rain on their roof. A strange scent <br />
hangs faintly in the air, and the young couple cannot shake the sense of <br />
something wrong.<br />
<br />
As hours pass and the rain continues to fall, Molly and Neil listen to the <br />
disturbing news of extreme weather phenomena across the globe. Before <br />
evening, their small California mountain town loses television and radio <br />
reception. Then telephone and the internet are gone. With the ceaseless rain <br />
now comes an obscuring fog that transforms the once-friendly village into a <br />
ghostly labyrinth. By nightfall the Sloans have gathered with some of their <br />
neighbors to deal with community damage...but also because they feel the <br />
need to band together against some unknown threat, some enemy they <br />
cannot identify or even imagine.<br />
<br />
In the night, strange noises arise, and at a distance, in the rain and the mist, <br />
mysterious lights are seen drifting among the trees. Soon Molly, Neil, and <br />
their small band of friends will be forced to draw on reserves of strength, <br />
courage, and humanity they never knew they had. For within the misty gloom <br />
they will encounter something that reveals in a terrifying instant what is <br />
happening to their world?something this is hunting them with ruthless <br />
efficiency.<br />
<br />
Epic in scope, searingly intimate and immediate in perspective, The Taking is <br />
an adventure story like no other, a relentless roller-coaster read that brings <br />
apocalypse to Main Street and showcases the talents of one of our most <br />
original and mesmerizing novelists at the pinnacle of his powers.<br />
