Summary

As a pandemic threatens to wipe out humanity, scientists must escort an immune old man through a deadly American hellscape in this apocalyptic thriller. 
 
The year is 2075, and a new virus has decimated more than 99% of the global population. The lone hope to escape extinction rests on the unready shoulders of Dr. Justin Kaes and a small team of specialists from the CDC. The blood of a 102-year-old man holds the only known cure. Unfortunately, he couldn’t care less whether humanity lives or dies. And he certainly doesn’t feel like taking a road trip to California. 
 
On the way to the coast lie murderous tribes, cults, voracious animals, and the toxic remains of civilization. The ragtag group face a world gone backwards, technology and industry reduced to rusting garbage. Their mission seems doomed . . . But there are a few decent souls still out there—in a place called Plaguesville, USA.
Available since: 02/11/2012.
Print length: 352 pages.

    A new supernatural suspense series that’ll have you breathlessly turning pages, perfect for fans of Home Before Dark and The Sun Down Motel. 
A haunted ghost town. A gifted medium. A truth she should've left buried. 
Every summer, revelers sneak into the abandoned town of Eden, Colorado, to celebrate an infamous crime: the Devil's Night Massacre, committed over a century ago by an outlaw nicknamed Bloody Marian. Penny Wright knows the gruesome legends better than most. She’s seen the ghosts that haunt the ruins firsthand, and she shares a history with Eden that she hoped to escape. 
Now it’s Penny's job, funded by a corporate sponsor, to make this Devil’s Night the biggest ever. When she returns home for the first time in years, she must face not only her family but Matthew Larsen—once the boy she loved, now the man who broke her heart. 
But before the festival even begins, Penny makes a grisly discovery that forces her to question how much she really knows about Eden’s secrets. As Devil’s Night approaches, the lines between the past and present begin to blur. And for Penny, the real nightmare is only just beginning.
