Coles A Scare at Bedtime: The Hunger at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The Hunger A Scare at Bedtime Danny Byrne is only five years old when the police discover what's hidden in the basement of his family's home on Mercy Street. His parents, loving, devoted, determined to see him grow up strong and healthy have been feeding him human flesh since birth. Fourteen victims. Maybe more. All carefully butchered and served at the family dinner table, night after night, year after year. Danny didn't know. How could he? He was just a child eating what his mother prepared. But ignorance can't undo what's been done. The flesh he consumed has become part of him, in his blood, his bones, his very cells. And now, separated from his parents and placed with his well-meaning vegetarian aunt and uncle, Danny discovers a horrifying truth, his body has been trained to crave what it was fed. A hunger that won't be denied. A need that no substitute can satisfy. As Danny grows from traumatized child to tormented teenager, the cravings intensify. Therapy can't cure him. Medication can't suppress it. Love can't save him. He's caught between two impossible choices: become the monster his mother created, or die fighting what he is. Some hungers run deeper than desire. Some appetites are written in blood. And some family curses can't be broken, they can only be inherited. The Hunger is a disturbing psychological horror that explores the darkest question, what happens to a child raised on atrocity? Can nurture overcome nature when nature itself has been perverted? And when the body demands what morality forbids, which one wins?
