A propulsive heart-palpitating novel of psychological suspense from the Bram Stoker
Award?winning author of A Head Full of Ghosts Seven-year-old Wen and her parents Eric and
Andrew are vacationing at a remote cabin on a quiet lake in northern New Hampshire. A handful
of miles from the Canadian border far removed from the bustle of city life cut off from the
urgent hum of cell phones and from the internet they are more than two miles away from their
closest neighbors in either direction along an old dirt logging road. On a cloudless summer day
as Wen catches grass-hoppers in the front yard a stranger unexpectedly appears. Leonard is the
largest man Wen has ever seen but he is young?twenty-four and a half years old he tells
her?and friendly with a warm and wide smile that wins her over almost instantly. Leonard and
Wen continue to talk and play until three more strangers two women and a man all dressed
like Leonard in jeans and button-down shirts come down the road carrying strange menacing
objects. In a panic Wen tells Leonard that she must go back inside the cabin. But before she
goes her new friend tells her ?None of what's going to happen is your fault. You haven't done
anything wrong but the three of you will have to make some tough decisions. I wish with all my
broken heart you didn't have to.? As Wen sprints away to warn her parents Leonard calls out
?Your dads won't want to let us in Wen. But they have to. We need your help to save the world.
Please.? The Cabin at the End of the World is an unbearably tense gripping tale of paranoia
sacrifice apocalypse and survival that escalates to a shattering conclusion one in which the
fate of a loving family and quite possibly all of humanity are entwined. Electrifying and
haunting it is a masterpiece of terror and suspense from the fantastically fertile imagination
of Paul Tremblay.
