John and Brooke are on their own, hitchhiking from town to town as they hunt the last of the Withered through the Midwest-but the Withered are hunting them back, and the FBI is close behind. With each new town, each new truck stop, each new highway, they get closer to a vicious killer who defies every principle of profiling and prediction John knows how to use, and meanwhile Brooke's fractured psyche teeters on the edge of oblivion, overwhelmed by the hundreds of thousands of dead personalities sharing her mind. She flips in and out of lucidity, manifesting new names and thoughts and memories every day, until at last the one personality pops up that John never expected and has no idea how to deal with: the last of Nobody's victims, trapped forever in the body of his last remaining friend.

      Sympathetic and insightful teen sociopath John Wayne Cleaver battles literal external demons as well as his metaphorical ones in the strong fifth entry (after The Devil’s Only Friend) in Wells’s contemporary horror series. After a confrontation with a powerful Withered demon, John and his team—reduced to his girlfriend, Brooke, and the rescued Boy Dog—are in pretty bad shape, but they continue their quest to track down and destroy the various Withered, despite their vastly reduced resources. Brooke’s possession by another Withered and the spirits of thousands of young women—including John’s erstwhile girlfriend Marci—is further complicated by Brooke’s recurring suicidal impulses. The fugitive trio journey to the unremarkable rural
      community of Dillon, Okla., searching for a largely unknown Withered. John’s attempts to deal with his desire to kill, his contradictory feelings toward Brooke, and the mundane struggles of their nomadic existence make the tale much richer than a simple
      monster vs. monster story. Agent: Sara Crowe, Harvey Klinger.
