Salvation Plague

When humanity is threatened by an explosion at a Russian research laboratory, coworkers and friends in a small southern town must band together for survival. They realize too late that this is no ordinary plague . . . and that the enemy they have to fight may not be the only thing they need to worry about.

The survivors lived through the horrifying first days of the plague and its aftermath. They've found their friends, their family . . . but others are still missing. Finding them means leaving the only safety they have, which may not be so safe after all. It's the dawn of a new era. One of violence, war, destruction, and horror. Just when they feel as if they've gotten a grip on the situation, fate throws another curveball their way. Every day is a new struggle, a new terrible reality. The only way forward is through it. They have new allies at their backs, and the promise of answers just out of reach on the horizon. If they can just hold out, just hold on, just keep going . . . they have a chance. But a chance isn't a guarantee.

They made it out of the rubble alive. Mostly. The survivors had lost everything in the disaster. All of it was destroyed in one horrific blink of an eye. They were going to have to regroup somewhere and heal, gather more supplies. Cheyenne Mountain, and the answers it would hopefully bring, could wait a little longer. Sten's place represented security and promised them a place to recoup some of their losses, but getting there could cost them their lives. Especially since danger was multiplying at every turn. At least they were still together . . . for now. When Kate went to her favorite coffee shop to finish up a work project, she hadn't expected the world to end. She hadn't expected to commit felonies left and right. She hadn't expected to lose her entire family. She hadn't expected Storm. Joining up with some of the soldiers seemed like the best option to accomplish her personal mission. Nashville was falling and needed their support, and she could tag along and help raise the body count. She wished she knew if the sacrifices she had made would be worth it in the end.

The survivors, with an unexpected last-minute change to their travel plans, move toward Fort Carson, Colorado, in search of answers. It is a thousand-mile journey that provides unforeseen opportunities, unexpected losses, and tangled alliances. They must find the strength to endure the worst that the startling new world has to offer and to survive with their humanity-and lives-intact. Along the way, they find colorful friends, bewildering enemies, and things more deadly than any of them had dreamed possible. They know that at the end of the journey, they stand to gain valuable information that will help their communities survive in the future, and perhaps even the answer to the virus itself. Is it valuable enough to be worth heartbreaking loss . . . especially when they find that the end of their journey isn't what any of them had expected?

Nashville is falling. Herds are forming. Humanity is facing extinction. They might be the last chance at salvation the city has left. Kate, Storm, and the rest of the Special Forces detachment head to Nashville to bolster the city's final defense, but when they arrive they find that things haven't gone according to plan. They are in a desperate race against the ravages of radiation, the new mutations that seem hellbent on killing them all, and even some of the people in their own group. From the horrors of Nashville to the questionable safety of Fort Carson, Colorado, they will do whatever it takes to survive, find their friends, and search out answers about the deadly government conspiracy that threatens them all. What they don't know is that they've only just begun, and the threats they've faced so far pale in comparison to what looms on the western horizon.
