How To Cut Brownies With Cookie Cutters

Justin Cronin (Robert Laffont)

The new novel by Justin Cronin Passage, released March 24 by Editions Robert Laffont, could well make the most noise ...

2010s. In Tennessee, Amy, an abandoned child of six is gathered in a convent ... In the Bolivian jungle, U.S. Army Research members of an expedition with a mysterious virus ... In Texas, two FBI agents persuade a condemned man to contribute to a government science experiment. He and the others sentenced to death in the project mutate and develop an extraordinary physical strength. The two FBI agents are then responsible for removing a child, Amy. Shortly after the virus was inoculated to the latter, the mutants attack the research center.
Nearly a century later. A community survived the Apocalypse by the attack of Virula, has resulted in the mutants were baptized. A teenage girl joins her soon. A microchip implanted under his skin reveals that this is Amy, now aged over a hundred years but that seems a mere fourteen ... The adventure is just beginning.

Upon his father, writer, who asked her what book she would read, the young Iris Cronin said: "The story of a girl who saves the world." Thus germinated in the minds of Justin Cronin's plot du Passage, the fascinating saga that has created the event last summer in the Anglo-Saxon. At thousand miles of vampire stories for teens, Justin Cronin, leaving the purely literary context of his previous novels, presents monsters icing bloods, and the description of a wonderfully scary post-apocalyptic America.
