Skinless

When the first patient arrives at Saving Grace Hospital, their skin peeling away in sheets, Dr. Alice Patel suspects a rare disease. She’s wrong.

Across the city, paramedic Maria Gonzales watches as the infected collapse in the streets, their flesh sliding off their bodies like wet paper. Meanwhile, teenager Ryan watches in horror as his mother succumbs to the unknown disease, her skin shedding, leaving her helpless prey for a Moult.

Forced to grow up fast, he must navigate the chaos beyond his apartment as the city tears itself apart. The Moults have already begun, spreading their parasite unseen, stripping people down to raw flesh and bone. Their victims weaken, their bodies failing, until the creatures emerge to feed.

As the outbreak spirals into an unstoppable nightmare, Alice, Maria, and Ryan fight to keep those around them alive. But the infection is evolving, and survival means unravelling its mystery before they, too, are stripped away.

The Moults are watching. The Moults are waiting. And when the last layer falls, they will feast.

A terrifying and relentless horror novel from an emerging talent of the genre. Skinless will get under your skin — literally.
