From the bestselling authors of the Invasion and Yesterday’s Gone series comes Dead Zero, a gripping biological technothriller that delivers a heart-pumping race against the clock to survive the first wave of the zombie plague … Taking Grandpa to the mall wasn’t supposed to be a life or death (and after death) situation. Thom Sheldon avoids visiting his aging father as much as he possibly can. Even now that Rick started taking a new experimental drug that seems to be helping his Alzheimer’s, it’s still an unpredictable and rarely pleasant errand. If Thom could avoid visiting his old man without getting guilt-tripped by his wife or hounded by his own conscience, he would. But today Thoms’ wife Carly and son Brendan are along for the ride, and there is no getting out of taking Rick to the mall. No one could have guessed that the zombie apocalypse would start near the food court. Except for Rick. This is how the apocalypse starts … Dead Zero is a stand alone novel built inside of Platt & Truant’s Dead World Trilogy, an intelligent, hard science fiction exploration of the zombie subgenre.

An assignment like no other. Vampire clan leader Jonah Bourke is that one. He didn’t plan to be a hero. He didn’t want to save the life of the slayer that was sent to kill him. Maybe he wouldn’t have, if he’d known. Too late now. Anissa just compounded his problems. Not that he didn’t have plenty: A rebellious twin who wants to claim leadership of their clan and a litany of supernaturals that want him dead.So what’s a vampire to do when he saves the life of the vampire girl sent to kill him? Sanctuary A half-blood by birth. Anissa Garnet is half-fae, half-vampire. And she’s not the daughter of just any fae, she’s the daughter of Gregor, the leader of the fae.

Now this half-breed has gone rogue, but she hasn’t done it alone. Vampire clan leader no more. Jonah Bourke not only stepped down from being a clan leader, he also left behind his entire clan, the one he was destined to rule. All to merge his fate with Anissa, the slayer that had been sent to kill him. New Alliances, old foes.The Sanctum provides more than sanctuary. It provides answers, which sometimes leads to more questions, and then even more threats. Absolution Ancient enemies, newfound coalitions. Anissa’s not about to take Jonah’s decision to face his enemies alone. This former slayer isn’t your average sit on the sidelines kind of girl. New heroes, not so new archenemies.Fane wants forgiveness and allegiance, but not at the cost of the ones he loves most. Certainly, not at the expense of a new soul that is joining his cadre. Needs rarely line up with wants.Philippa’s feelings for Vance won’t be the end of her, but will they be the end of a loved one?
