Bedbugs invade Brooklyn…<br />
In this creepy crawly horror novel,<br />
Alex and Susan Wendt discover that their<br />
new Brooklyn brownstone is full of<br />
terrifying secrets-millions of terryfying,<br />
blood-sucking secrets!<br />
FOR RENT: Top two floors of<br />
beautifully renovated brownstone, 1300<br />
sq. ft., 2BR 2BA, eat-in kitchen, one block<br />
to parks and playgrounds. No broker’s<br />
fee. --- Susan and Alex Wendt have found<br />
their dream apartment.<br />
Sure, the landlady is a little eccentric. And<br />
the elderly handyman drops some cryptic<br />
remarks about the basement. But the rent<br />
is so low, it’s too good to pass up.<br />
Big mistake. Susan soon discovers that<br />
her new home is crawling with bedbugs . .<br />
. or is it? She awakens every morning with<br />
fresh bites, but neither Alex nor their<br />
daughter Emma has a single welt.<br />
An exterminator searches the property<br />
and turns up nothing. The landlady<br />
insists her building is clean. Susan fears<br />
she’s going mad—until a more sinister<br />
explanation presents itself: she may<br />
literally be confronting the bedbug<br />
problem from Hell.<br />
