A mutinous past. A monstrous escape. A mind on the brink.
1987: In the dead of night, two children flee a brutal orphanage. Only one survives. Decades later, Timothy Salter lives in silence and squalor, haunted by the sister he lost and the secrets buried with her.
2014: Deep in the English countryside, a notorious inmate with a taste for flesh escapes from a secure psychiatric hospital during a mysterious solar flare. Wolfe is more than a killer-he believes he's the heir to Jack the Ripper's legacy, and he's not finished yet.
As chaos spreads through Copse Hall, an institution hiding unethical experiments and buried guilt, psychiatrist Dr. George Kotlas is forced into a deadly game of survival. Meanwhile, the discovery of a forgotten manuscript hints at psychic phenomena and a dark intelligence manipulating events from the shadows.
When past trauma collides with present terror, and science meets the supernatural, the line between madness and evil begins to blur.
Terrifying, intelligent, and disturbingly plausible, The Night of the Mosquito is a relentless psychological thriller about trauma, power, and the monsters we create-inside institutions, and inside ourselves.
