<DIV><B>A relentless alien bounty hunter encloses a Texas town under a dome to isolate, hunt, and kill its prey in &ldquo;the ultimate horror novel&rdquo; (<I>The Philadelphia Inquirer</I>).</B><BR /> &#160;<BR /> Ever since the copper mine closed, the West Texas desert hellholes of Inferno and Bordertown have been slowly dying. Snake River isn&rsquo;t the only thing that divides them. Racism, gang wars, and anti-Mexican sentiment have turned the sun-scorched flatlands into a powder keg. If anything can unite them for now, at least in awe and wonder, it&rsquo;s the UFO that comes soaring out of the clouds like a flaming locomotive.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> In the wake of the crash, a young alien named Daufin has arrived, too. A fugitive who has taken the form of a human, she knows the terror that awaits the inhabitants of this planet&mdash;because it is looking for her.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> When Stinger, the monstrous alien bounty hunter, arrives, it&rsquo;s with a destructive fury and a devious plan to find Daufin&mdash;by entombing the residents in an impenetrable and inescapable dome. A relentless killing machine, Stinger has an infinite capacity for death and destruction. And over the next twenty-four hours, this town is going to bleed and burn. Now, the few remaining survivors must come together to protect Daufin, themselves, and the world beyond from total annihilation.<BR /> &#160;<BR /> From the <I>New York Times</I>&ndash;bestselling and Bram Stoker Award&ndash;winning author of <I>Swan Song</I>, <I>Stinger</I> was called &ldquo;one of the best suspense novels of recent years&rdquo; by the <I>Science Fiction Chronicle</I>.<BR /> &#160;</DIV>
