“Welcome to the FEVER HOUSE. When leg-breaker Hutch Holtz rolls up to a rundown apartment complex in Portland, Oregon, a severed hand is the last thing he expects to find in the refrigerator. Hutch quickly realizes that the hand induces uncontrollable madness: Anyone in its proximity is overcome with a boundless compulsion for violence. Within hours, catastrophic forces are set into motion: Dark-op government agents are on Hutch's tail, and suddenly all of Portland stands at the precipice of disaster. . .
But it's all the same for Katherine Moriarty, a singer whose sudden fame and precipitous downfall were followed by the mysterious death of her estranged husband--suicide, allegedly. Now agoraphobic and shackled within her apartment, she is looked after by her son, Nick, who is quietly making his living working for Hutch's boss.
When Hutch calls Nick in distress, Katherine and Nick are plunged into a global struggle that will decimate the walls of the carefully arranged life they've built. They must evade both crazed, bloodthirsty masses and deceitful government agents while exorcising family secrets --secrets, they soon discover, that might hold the very key to humanity's survival.
‘Where were you when the Message came through?’ THE DEVIL BY NAME opens five years after FEVER HOUSE, with survivors finally starting to find a new equilibrium in a world overrun by the zombie-like “fevered.” We meet Naomi, a teenage girl in France with the unique ability to draw the fever out of the afflicted. Naomi has fallen under the control of a vicious man, but the American intelligence community will stop at nothing to bring her and her power to the US.
Back in the US, we find American survivors weighted down by guilt for the lives they couldn’t save: Katherine is a grieving mother living under an assumed name in Cape Cod, visiting her fevered son in a dead-bolted garden shed under the cover of night, and Dean is a peddler who lives on the road, scavenging, selling, trading, and trying to forget the family he once had. When the demonic force that was behind the fever re-emerges, Katherine, Dean, and Naomi will have to make a dangerous journey across a ravaged America, all while scouring the secrets of their own pasts in order to save the world in a heart-stopping, breakneck saga of survival.
Keith Rosson is the Shirley Jackson Award-winning author of the Folk Songs for Trauma Surgeons collection, and several novels.He lives in Portland, Oregon, with his family. Fever House is currently in development for television by MRC with acclaimed novelist and screenwriter Richard Price attached.
