Small-Town Terror
RAMPAGE is like watching a
burning house on a prairie: It's compelling, horrifying, and completely involving. In one

inhabited equally by terror and family. RAMPAGE is a literate thriller, a character-rich
mulch, and a thick soup of human crashes, but above all, it's edgy storytelling at its
best.

print once again. Read our exclusive interview with the charming Massie.
