Where Humanity Holds Ground.

One Catastrophe. One Mission. Hold Your Ground.

A Dark Humor Apocalypse Influenced by Terrifying True Events.

You Will Never See Zombie Drugs the Same Way!

“Great characters and believable action”
“Speaking as a cynical old soldier and nitpicking fool, all I can say about this book is it rocks hard and I could not wait to see the sequel. Most of these types of books are boring and derivative – not this one.”—Amazon reviewer Michael L.

Coastal Wilmington, North Carolina, stands in the crosshairs. The economy struggles. A flu pandemic spreads. Authorities blame the newest zombie street drug for an outbreak of crazy behavior popping up all over town. But why are so many sick people growing violent, and what the hell is wrong with the dogs? People are saying the sick are straight-up zombies, the “28 Days Later” alive kind that run; is this another conspiracy theory?

For former Staff Sergeant Peter Sullivan, the zombie apocalypse seeming to come real is a good thing. War is what he does best. Life is what he sucks at. But for PhD candidate Phebe Marcelino, it’s a descent into a panicking society of kill-or-be-killed.

Veteran US Army 75^th Rangers and US Marines, turned civilian police, paramedic, and security guard, band together. The combat is like nothing they have seen, and the Pentagon never thought of killing them before. Can their rusty teamwork protect them?
For Phebe, her survival instinct and intelligence are all she’s got. Does the academic have the mettle to pull out the badass women-turned-fighters of the “Aliens” franchise and Sarah Connor in “T2”? You never know what you’re made of until tested.

WARNING by necessity of the most pigeonholed trope! Influenced by the true-life 2012 ‘Bath Salts Zombie Apocalypse’ and other authentic zombie drugs, this unique, dark humor disaster story is by a skilled suspense writer with a background in the US Armed Forces and science.

“This one goes in the reread pile!”
“Love this book. It puts a new spin on zombie fiction, and quite frankly scared the crap out of me, since out of all the zombie books I’ve read this one seems like it could really happen! The storyline, humor, and action helped keep me reading instead of heading out to buy a bunker.”—Amazon reviewer Carolyn.
