About the Book
The sequel to Rise Again from an author who “balances kinetically choreographed scenes of zombie carnage with studies of well-drawn characters and enough political
intrigue to give his tale more gravity and grounding than most zombie
gorefests” (Publishers Weekly).
It began with isolated reports of mass hysteria. Screaming mobs. Sudden
death. The plague spread around the world, slaughtering billions. For
the survivors knee-deep in corpses, it didn’t seem things could get
worse. Until the dead stumbled to their feet. Mindless, shambling, they
were repulsive — but harmless. And then a warning came, too late...
Sheriff Danielle Adelman, a troubled war veteran, has pursued her runaway kid
sister across the end of the world, and now Danny realizes her problems
have only just begun. Danny thought she had seen humanity at its worst
in war-torn Iraq, but nothing could prepare her for the remorseless
struggle to survive in a dying world being overrun by the reanimated
dead. Now, Danny’s epic and dangerous journey challenges her spirit — and
brings her to the precipice of sanity itself.
Filled with adventurous human drama — and shocking inhuman horror — this sequel to the acclaimed novel Rise Again continues a vivid and powerful fiction debut.
