Synopsis

Curse of the Pharaohs From the silent tombs of the pharaohs it came, infecting the world with an insidious disease more terrifying than the Black Plague. The vile infection transformed those it touced into savage demented beasts. But the victims of this ancient curse did not die, they overran the earth, thriving on the meat of the healthy. Survivors could either contract the hideous sickness--or meet death in the jaws of a rabid killer. From the author of The Wereling.
