Description
Melanie Stryder se niega a desaparecer. La Tierra ha sido invadida por criaturas que han tomado el control de las mentes de los humanos en los que se hospedan dejando los cuerpos intactos y la mayor parte de la humanidad ha sucumbido. Wanderer el alma invasora que habita el cuerpo de Melanie se enfrenta al reto de vivir dentro de un humano. Las emociones abrumadoras; los recuerdos demasiado intensos. Pero hay una sola dificultad que Wanderer no consigue vencer: la anterior propietaria de su cuerpo lucha por retener la posesion de su mente. Melanie inunda la mente de Wanderer con visiones del hombre que ama Jared un humano que vive oculto hasta el punto de que incapaz de controlar los deseos de su cuerpo anhela a un hombre al que jamas ha visto. Una serie de circunstancias externas las convierte en aliadas muy a su pesar y parten en busca del hombre que ambas aman a la vez. The Host (La huesped) nos muestra el primer triangulo amoroso que implica a solo dos cuerpos en una inolvidable y fascinante novela que atraera a un gran numero de lectores de una de las mas cautivadores escritoras de nuestro tiempo.
