The Dorians

The all-new novel of terror from "one of the hottest horror authors on the planet" (Paste) and writer of the #HorrorBookTok sensation The Troop!

"This modern sci-fi/horror hybrid shares DNA with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, but that DNA has mutated into something gleefully grotesque...Cutter once again shows his knack for straddling the razor-thin line between fully realized characters and skin-crawling body horror...readers, both fascinated and appalled, cannot look away." --Library Journal (starred review)

On a remote island in the Canadian wilderness, five elderly volunteers from different walks of life are given a tantalizing offer: to stall their biological clocks or even reverse them, restoring their lost youth. The chance to put death on pause--forever, perhaps. The remarkable secret lies in the high-tech harnessing of an ancient and extraordinary biological agent...one with no conscience, yet possessed with a single-minded purpose that has helped it persist for eons: the will to survive. The dark heart of unbridled human ambition finds its apex in an unholy experiment that now tests the limits of both creator and subject, eclipsing all bounds of morality and sanity....
