What's the Name of That Book??? discussion

Hi, this book is contemporary, I believe. A man wakes up possibly in a hospital. At one point he runs into his mistress and she has aged greatly. We find later that they were all in suspended animation and her pod was opened years before his. Also, humans have evolved into kangaroo type creatures that prey upon the village. They are kept out by an electrified fence. At the end, the man who spearheaded the event goes crazy and turns off the electricity and the village is attacked by the future creatures. Some people escape and got back into suspended animation.

I added genre (guessed it's science fiction), some plot details, and a spoiler alert to the topic header. This will help searchers and moderators. Feel free to update it by clicking the small “edit” link after the header. This only works on the full Desktop website – not the Mobile website or app.

Around what year did you read this book? A range of years is fine.

Would you call this a sci fi dystopian and/or horror novel?

This sounds a bit like the Wayward Pines Novel series.

"Wayward Pines, Idaho, is quintessential small-town America--or so it seems. Secret Service agent Ethan Burke arrives in search of two missing federal agents, yet soon is facing much more than he bargained for. After a violent accident lands him in the hospital, Ethan comes to with no ID and no cell phone. The medical staff seems friendly enough, but sometimes feels...off. As days pass, Ethan's investigation into his colleagues' disappearance turns up more questions than answers"

Thank you both so much. Question answered!!!

Just to confirm, are you saying that Pines by Blake Crouch is your book?
