Adrift Among the Dead: A Zombie Apocalypse Thriller (Wrack and Ruin)

The dead aren’t just rising. They’re evolving—and humanity is running out of time. As the world continues to unravel, Zoe, Oliver, and the small group of survivors who have become family make the bold and risky decision to push west toward the one place that might still offer hope—Cheyenne Mountain, a Cold War fortress carved deep into the Colorado Rockies. Zoe has her own reason for pushing west. A fragile lead suggests her best friend Alexis may still be alive—and in danger. Zoe isn’t the only one trying to reach the mountain. President Ona Freeman has been fighting to hold the government together since the first hours of the outbreak—but the road from Washington has cost her dearly. Each safe house falls, each evacuation fails, and the circle of people she trusts grows smaller with every stop. Meanwhile, across the heartland, the infected are changing. They are no longer wandering. They are gathering. Forming grotesque amalgamations of flesh and bone, drawn toward something no one yet understands.
