The Ravenous is about a rural Maine town where most of the adult citizens are members of a human-sacrificial cult.

In an interview in The Chronicle, Issue 31 [1], T. M. Gray states: "If Jaws made you afraid to go in the water, and Psycho made you afraid of taking a shower, I wouldn't suggest a woodland hike after reading this novel!"

The Ravenous introduces us to Eddie Spears, a teenager who is into video games and hanging out with his best friend, Jess Brown.

Eddie has a problem: he can hear distant whispers and this causes severe headaches.

When he discovers the true cause for his town's prosperity: a sacrificial pseudo-Druid cult, Eddie comes to realize he has a special gift—but can he use it in time to save his sister's life?
