For Miss Trent and her students, what should have been a well-deserved celebration has suddenly turned into a desperate fight for survival. There's something lurking in the forest. Hunting them. Feeding off their fear. Nothing is what it seems. Until tonight, insanity was just a word. Now they're going to learn its true meaning.

One day changed the world forever. Billions died. A small handful of survivors braved the apocalyptic wasteland to start again. This is their story.

Two sisters, one nightmare. The last thing they wanted to do was spend time with each other. Now their very survival depends on it.

As they navigate the city to escape to safety, terror lurks for them on every corner. The reanimating virus has taken away everything they loved, but today, they’re going to start fighting back. Living or dead, everyone is a threat. The rules have changed and for these two, time is running out.

Since escaping the zombie-infested cities, there has been no respite for Robyn and Wren. Now, though, the sisters finally have a chance to start afresh. But the world has other plans.

She heads deep into the English countryside, intent on making a success of the once popular inn. However, discovering the murder throws her a curve ball. Especially when she suspects dark magick.

Or will they fight like they’ve never fought before?

A city on its knees. A killer choosing random victims. A detective pushed to breaking point.

The planet has succumbed to a monstrous virus. Those who die from the infection return as savage predators hell-bent on spreading the virus to the rest of the human population. The UK and Ireland are the last hold-outs, but when the infrastructure supporting their self-imposed quarantine collapses, it's everyone for themselves.

Before the worst day of their lives, wild horses could not pull them together. Now, nothing can tear them apart...or so they thought. A chance meeting, a bad decision, a stormy night - the fuse is lit to their most explosive 24 hours yet. When the dead roam the streets, when enemies prowl in the shadows, and when strangers are not all they seem, the only people Wren and Robyn can rely on are each other.

Winter has arrived, and it will wreak havoc on Redemption. Lives will be lost. Hearts will be broken. But it’s nothing compared to the storm that’s coming.

Together again, but for how long? A promise kept, another one made, and the ghost of guilt threatens madness. For Wren, her dream has come true. For Robyn, the fate of a friend will determine her future. Now, everything rests on one decision. Two sisters, a new nightmare. Gangs, armies, the undead hordes - they must face them all to find peace, but at what cost?

For sisters Robyn and Wren, nothing will ever be the same. The cities are burning; the world is in chaos. The dead are rising...and they're hungry. Safety? Security? These words are meaningless now. They fight, they hide, they run. No rest. No respite. All they can cling to is hope. Hope they can find others. Hope they can learn the skills needed to survive. Hope they can stay together. Their situation seems desperate, and the only thing they can depend on is each other. But is that enough?

A virus has infected billions all over the world, turning its victims into vicious zombies. The UK and Ireland have remained uninfected...until now.

Each night more shots are heard as the undead begin to stake their claim to the streets of Leeds.

After the storm comes calm. But for how long? Fresh from their victory against Olsen’s armies, new challenges await the people of Safe Haven. Under siege, with fuel running out fast, hard decisions need to be made in order to keep the settlement secure.

The betrayed wife? The devious cousin? The ghost of Anne Boleyn?
