In a warren of crumbling buildings and desperate people called the Old City, there stands a hospital with cinderblock walls that echo the screams of the poor souls inside. In the hospital, there is a woman. Her hair, once blond, hangs in tangles down her back. She doesn't remember why she's in such a terrible place. Just a tea party long ago, and long ears, and blood.

Susan Doherty's groundbreaking book brings us a population of lost souls, ill-served by society, feared, shunted from locked wards to rooming houses to the streets to jail and back again. For the past ten years, some of the people who cycle in and out of the severely ill wards of the Douglas Institute in Montreal have found a friend in Susan, who volunteers on the ward, and then follows her friends out into the world as they struggle to get through their days. With their full cooperation, she brings us their stories, which challenge the ways we think about people with mental illness.

Publisher's Summary
Something is out there....
Something terrifying that must not be seen. One glimpse and a person is driven to deadly violence. No one knows what it is or where it came from.
Five years after it began, a handful of scattered survivors remain, including Malorie and her two young children. Living in an abandoned house near the river, Malorie has long dreamed of fleeing to a place where her family might be safe. But the journey ahead will be terrifying: 20 miles downriver in a rowboat blindfolded with nothing to rely on but Malorie's wits and the children's trained ears. One wrong choice and they will die. And something is following them. But is it man, animal, or monster?
Engulfed in darkness, surrounded by sounds both familiar and frightening, Malorie embarks on a harrowing odyssey - a trip that takes her into an unseen world and back into the past, to the companions who once saved her. Under the guidance of the stalwart Tom, a motley group of strangers banded together against the unseen terror, creating order from the chaos. But when supplies ran low, they were forced to venture outside and confront the ultimate question: In a world gone mad, who can really be trusted?
Interweaving past and present, Josh Malerman's breathtaking debut is a horrific and gripping snapshot of a world unraveled that will have you racing to the final page.

Couldn't buy in!
We listened to the book on a long journey. The journey was 2 hours longer than the book which was perfect timing for my daughter & I to dissect the events & plotline. The holes in the plausibility are huge. Simple changes would have made it more believable. A better title would be "The Blind Side".

let down by the narration
good story, although, I think they might have more success with a different narrator. Well worth a listen, though!

glad I did audio
I could not of read this as a physical book. luckily I was sick while I listened to this so I kept at it . the book is tedious , so very tedious, the author feels the need to describe nearly every action of every character such as "she pit the cup down,turned left,breathed out, blinked," etc and along with that the author writes these creative descriptions for a characters emotions like " her heart was beating like the wings of a hummingbird that just had espresso" ( example) so I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for this stuff to happen and all I get is several chapters about how this one woman's arm hurts or how windy it is . its just not my sup of tea, I like my action quick and interesting, and descriptiveness is fine as long as its necessary and not tedious. I almost gave up on this n just went to google to read the end. but the book was redeemed by the last half ,mainly the ending, I feel like this book could of been a short story, we could of skipped a lot of the blah blah and just had the badass ending as the entire book lol my love for horror and sci fi and abnormal is why this book isn't a 1 . I loved the concept and the ending but the story writing was a total yawn and I found myself skipping ahead through long descriptions to get to the juice of the story I also absolutely hated all other characters in this book except Mallory and the kids, I hated them so much! they were flat and ridiculously emotional, I wondered why Mallory liked tom so much but there was no hint of a relationship ,not even really a friendship? so odd and the characters actions didn't make sence a lot of the time. its as if they were just put there to fill in a book that came from an idea about things u see that make u crazy. the characters weren't human ,they were either mad or scared or neutral. it was infuriating and I felt nothing when any of them were in peril. honestly I kinda feel cheated from buying this book I think the author just thought a interesting idea and wrote around it but didn't glue down the edges u know what I mean?

Wanted to keep listening
I'm very picky about the books I listen to, but once I find one I like I can't help but listen/read it continually until it's done. This book did just that. It kept my attention. During the 'slow' parts I found it quite facinsting and wanted to know more, and for the rest of it, it kept me suspenseful. I really felt for the characters, the plot was interesting and I didn't find it dull, and my intrigue was piqued continuously.
The speaker was generally good but was a little annoying to listen to for some of the voices but overall thought they did a great job.

It's got what the movie lacked
I listened to this book after watching the Netflix adaptation. While the movie was captivating, most notable because of its mysterious creatures the characters felt flatter and the experience was overshadowed by being able to literally see everything happening. This is where the audio book shines, the events are at times described through the character's experience. How things feel, how horrors are simply unknowable and the unseen terror is shared with the listener in this way. Highly recommend.

New Favorite Horror Novel
I had actually listened to this book through my library's app, and it was so good that I needed to own it. It is such a simple idea, but is done SO WELL. The writing is super atmospheric and creepy, and I felt like I was the MC walking around with a blindfold on. I recommend it to all.
