    <![CDATA[At any given moment, the human body contains millions of parasites.<br/><br/>This is the story of just one.<br/><br/>A really, really nasty one.<br/><br/>Benjamin Wilson was having a lousy month even before the stomach pains began. He was about to turn forty. One of his students had been shot while on a homicidal meat cleaver rampage. And shortly after the funeral, Benjamin didn't feel so good...<br/><br/>Now everything is changing. His body is being affected in some very unpleasant ways. His personality is developing a few &quot;quirks.&quot; But the biggest change is that he has a bunch of evil and/or psychotic people trying to hunt him down to acquire the parasite. His only hope is Julie, a gorgeous bounty hunter who may or may not have Benjamin's best interests in mind, and who may or may not be competent enough to help him anyway.<br/><br/>Jeff Strand, author of The Sinister Mr. Corpse, Gleefully Macabre Tales, and Pressure, delivers his most outrageous adventure yet—an over-the-top mix of gruesome body horror and a wacky road trip comedy.<br/><br/>You'll laugh until your intestines scramble.]]>
