My zombie, thriller, action adventure series Wolves of the Apocalypse. In book 1, terrorists in San Francisco unleash a plague that turns people into violent cannibals. Can two antiheroes outwit the attack's mastermind?
In book 2, the protagonist's response to the chaos tries his friends' loyalty. Will winning his objective cost him what truly matters?
