Book two in the Black Tide Rising series from the New York Times
bestselling author
A family of survivors fights back against a zombie plague that has
brought down civilization.
A world cloaked in darkness
With human civilization annihilated by a biological zombie plague, a
ragtag fleet of yachts and freighters known as Wolf Squadron scours the
Atlantic, searching for survivors. Within every abandoned liner and
carrier lurks a potential horde, safety can never be taken for granted,
and death and turning into one of the enemy is only a moment away.
The candle flickers
Yet every ship and town holds the flickering hope of survivors. One or
two from lifeboats, a dozen from a fishing village, a few hundred
wrenched by fury and fire from a ship that once housed thousands....
Light a flame
Now Wolf Squadron must take on another massive challenge: clear the
assault carrier USS Iwo Jima of infected before the trapped Marines and
sailors succumb to starvation. If Wolf Squadron can accomplish that
task, an even tougher trial awaits: an apocalyptic battle to win a new
dawn for humanity. The war for civilization begins as the boats of the
Wolf Squadron become a beacon of hope on a Darkling Sea.
