The stress unleashed with a inexplicable contagion threatens the bonds of family and community in a seemingly idyllic suburban community. The Nash family is close-knit. Tom is a popular teacher, father of two young adults: Eli, a hockey celebrity and girl magnet, and his sister Deenie, a diligent scholar. Their seeming balance, however, is tossed into chaos when Deenie's best friend is struck with a terrifying, unexplained seizure in category. Rumors of the hazardous outbreak pass on through the family, university, and community. As hysteria and contagion swell, some tightly placed secrets emerges, intimidating to unravel friendships, people, and the town's delicate notion of security. A chilling storyline about guilt, family secrets, and the lethal ability of desire, The Fever affirms Megan Abbott's reputation as "one of the most fascinating and original voices of her generation" (Laura Lippman).
