Skinners

Adam Millard

A novella.

Los Angeles, the City of Angels. At least, that’s what the brochure says. What it fails to mention is the earthquakes. Oh, and the flesh-eating creatures that are lying dormant beneath the concrete, waiting for the chance to surface once again. Their wait is over... A quake tears the city apart, but that’s the least of the Angelenos’ worries. They’re about to experience hell on earth. Fossor Scarabaeus – clown-beetles – are emerging from the cracks, and they’re not in LA for the sights. An arrogant actor, an action movie director, a B-movie starlet, the owner of a bar and the ‘A’ Platoon of LAFD must work together to survive the creatures. Or risk becoming dinners for the Skinners…
