When a toxic leak from a crumbling oil field poisons the soil of a small Texas town, it doesn't just sicken the crops. It mutates them. Those who eat from the land find their teeth falling out in days - and their minds crumbling soon after. Violence erupts, families turn on each other, and chaos reigns.

At the heart of the outbreak, a weary bartender must protect his younger sister, uncover the real source of the infection, and survive the brutal enforcers sent by a corrupt oil company desperate to cover its tracks.

But starving to death might be the only way to stay alive.

In Rot Mouth, Michael Turner weaves a chilling tale of environmental horror, corporate greed, and the terrifying things we invite inside when we're too afraid to face the truth.
