Military Horror Fiction

This is the sixth and final novel in the action-packed series following Special Forces Captain Lee Harden and a group of survivors struggling to survive while rebuilding an America devastated by a bacterium that has turned 90 percent of the population into a ravenous horde.

Michael Talbot, his squad, and followers have suffered hardship and loss along the way, but finally, after years of searching, they have reached their Colorado homestead and settled in. But the world hasn't finished with them yet. A ferocious and determined enemy draws them back into the war for Humankind, and this time, the battle will be final.

After a covert mission in the Iraqi desert, Delta Force operator Vann Jackson returns to the US embassy in Baghdad—infected with a deadly, bloodthirsty virus. When he snaps in the embassy chow hall, the violence is brutal—and the contagion now unstoppable. As the infection spreads, turning military and civilian staff into mindless killers, panic erupts, command breaks down, and the embassy descends into chaos.

Beyond the reach of the nuclear infernos, the masterminds survived and continue their assault on outposts across the Allied States. Timothy Temper and Sergeant Ruckley narrowly escaped one of those attacks. On the run from hostile forces, they fight to get an urgent message to command - the monsters aren’t the only threat. Their human allies have a nuclear weapon. Refusing to hide underground, President Jan Ringgold heads to New York. Doctor Kate Lovato and her team are there working to infiltrate and sabotage enemy communications.

The training continues. So do the missions, and now Jonesy and Molly and Duke need to run on a razor’s edge to save the world - preferably without killing their new recruits.

More training, more zombies, more death, and a new enemy. Join the crew of the Sassafras and hang on for the ride!
