Detest-A-Pest Vermin 2.0: Hunger Pains, Book 1, (Hardcover)

A dead-beat dad? Yup. An out of control invasion of pests? Oh, yeah. A crippling phobia of rats? Unfortunately, yes. Sam Shaw has a mountain of problems and one summer to solve them.

Sam's fear of rats takes him to the verge of terror. When super-sized vermin turn up in his apartment, his phobia pushes him over the edge.

But it isn't one or two rats. A hybrid colony - genetically superior, strong, and super intelligent - has moved into the basement... and living flesh is on the menu.

Pets and tenants disappear, leaving behind a wake of carnage Sam is powerless to stop. Now, with his estranged son Bradley dumped on his doorstep, Sam must switch into protection mode - if he can.

Faced with impossible odds, Sam hires Bertha O'Connor from Detest-A-Pest Exterminators Inc. She runs the only outfit brave enough - or crazy enough - to take the job. O'Connor and her crew need backup and drag Sam and Bradley along for the battle. But this horde of super-rats may be smarter than anyone had bargained for...
