CBC RADIO ONE: Nav Nanwa from Ontario Morning interviews Benjamin Rempel
Rempel at his June 15 launch event in Collingwood, ON
Early on the morning of July 3, 2024, Nav Nanwa, book columnist for CBC Radio One, introduced Chicken House Press author, Benjamin Rempel, to CBC listeners all across Central Ontario as they discussed Rempel’s newly released debut, INFECT.
“The story was really triggered by newspaper articles I came across about a medical professional who used her place of authority to commit crimes against her community,” Rempel shared. “This dynamic was fascinating to me and so I immediately had my villain…this trusted, high ranking member of a small town who, in the end, should not have been trusted at all.”

FERAL WINTER BOOK ONE
Nearing the end of a harsh winter, estranged half-brothers, Andrew and Xavier, flee into the dark woods isolating their town. Panicked, the young men seek refuge from a growing horde of feral townsfolk tracking them with unbridled violence.
Threatened by dwindling food supplies, rising tensions, and a troubled group of survivors, the brothers are thrust into bloody conflicts while desperately searching for their parents.
As their community unravels, Andrew and Xavier must uncover the terrifying truth about a virus ravaging their town if they are to survive one more night from the things that hunt them.
Hailed as “violent, mysterious, and powerfully empathetic,” INFECT explores human behaviour where nothing is sacred and survival is the highest priority.
