One hundred rats used to help heal sick people go missing from a laboratory during the night, leaving the police to think they have been stolen for money. But, after a farmer and his wife are mutilated in the early hours, and another farmer's dog is found dead, the police think something is going on at the laboratory. It soon comes to light that the tested rats are attacking everyone in sight, but why? Now, the police need to decide whether to recapture the rats because of their uses or kill them, but the rats fear no one as they thirst for blood. THE RATS ARE COMING Packed with action, horror & suspense, this story will leave you squirming at the thought of a rat being inside your house, or even by your feet. Not for the faint-hearted. If you loved the James Herbert's RATS novels then this should be right up your street.
