Publisher's summary

The absentmindedness. The nonsensical ramblings. The blank stares. Ward Ayers, physically disabled and confined to his Jersey Shore home, can only watch in dismay as his beloved wife Malina slips further and further into dementia. But when Ward catches a glimpse of a strange appendage in place of Malina’s tongue, he fears the woman he’s loved for half a century isn’t succumbing to Alzheimer’s but transforming into something...not quite human. As he tries to make sense of his wife’s disturbing changes, he starts wondering if he’s the one losing his mind. Until, finally, Ward uncovers the dark force behind Malina’s decline and must plumb the depths of sacrifice and selfishness to reclaim his wife and preserve humanity’s future.

An engaging, and engrossing story.

Josh crafts a tightly written, well-rounded story that sucks you in immediately. He makes you feel sympathy and empathy for the characters as we see their day to day lives with assisted living.
He ratchets up the tension and slowly starts doling out the clues almost immediately. This was a quick read and I would recommend this to anyone looking for a story that is both heart-warming and thrilling.
