After a harrowing journey through infected territory, Jane Finch, her loyal Great Dane, and her equally protective almost-zombie Grey have reached the military base in the mountains. It's supposed to be safe. But the last thing they can do is drop their guard. Surrounded by soldiers, reeling from her first kiss with Grey and the news that he has a wife, Jane is separated from Grey. The loss leaves her aching. Then she's thrust into a tenuous role of 'behavioral investigator' for the base. When she uncovers a shocking truth, she's desperate to reach Grey.
Kept in chains and subject to constant tests, Grey is torn between reclaiming his life as Commander Jack Hale and embracing his altered state. The base's expert doctor and the woman claiming to be Jack's wife insist that he needs to focus on training soldiers and leave Jane behind. But those same people are keeping deadly secrets-including feral zombies in cages.
Grey is told that Jane makes him feral. But his altered instincts are convinced he belongs with her-and that she's in terrible danger. And he's right. There's a hidden enemy in the base, a traitor plotting to destroy all the survivors.
If being feral means he can save his pack, does he even want to be human?
Contains mature themes.
Jane Finch is trapped in a bunker with a zombie. Grey saved her life, but she's got no idea how to manage him in an enclosed space. Especially when he's built like a superhero and very hungry . . .
The challenge of sharing close quarters with a zombie gets even more complicated when Jane tells her parents about her new arrangement-and they've got a surprise for her, too. Staying in the bunker isn't an option, because the Americans are threatening to nuke the entire area. Grey is regaining pieces of his humanity, but a rescue team won't trust him. Or make space for her Great Dane, Schroddie. And Jane won't leave either of them behind.
Rescue or not, Jane, Schroddie, and Grey have to get out of the blast radius.
A stolen car and an overprotective zombie get her and Schroddie all the way to the forward base-a base they find overrun with zombies. She grows closer with Grey and the lines of their relationship blur. She knows they'll survive as long as they're together-then Jane and Schroddie are kidnapped by power-hungry insurgents.
Grey will follow. He will get Jane back.
Even if it means unleashing the monster inside him.
Contains mature themes.
One woman. One Great Dane. And a zombie above the rest.
Jane Finch wishes her problems ended with a bad commute and no coffee. But when she and her beloved Great Dane, Schrodinger, emerge from a locked room they discover a city changed for the undead.
Zombies are everywhere. Some are endlessly cycling through their last actions, others have turned feral-and hungry. Jane and Schroddie's best chance for survival? Reaching her parents' bunker on the city's north shore.
Not an easy commute on foot-when surrounded by zombies.
Dodging stray bullets and feral zombies is one thing. But soon Jane realizes one of the zombies is following her. Built like a tank, silent as the grave, his attention never wavers. Wherever she goes, he's there. If she hides, he finds her. There's no fighting him, no escape.
He's not like the others-and he might be Jane's only hope for survival.
Contains mature themes.
