Publisher Description
They rise... Out of the flooded streets of Houston, they emerge from plague-ridden waters. Dead. Rotting. Hungry. And as human survivors scramble to their rooftops for safety, the zombie hordes circle like sharks. The ultimate killing machines. They feed... Houston is quarantined to halt the spread of the zombie plague. Anyone trying to escape is shot on sight—living and dead. Emergency Ops sergeant Eleanor Norton has her work cut out for her. Salvaging boats and gathering explosives, Eleanor and her team struggle to maintain order. But when civilization finally breaks down, the feeding frenzy begins. They multiply... Biting, gnawing, feasting—but always craving more—the flesh-eaters increase their ranks every hour. With doomsday looming, Eleanor must focus on the people she loves—her husband and daughter—and a band of other survivors adrift in zombie-infested waters. If she can't bring them into the quarantine zone, they're all dead meat.

"This series is simply win after win. I have loved all three books so far and there seems to be an unlimited amount of stories to tell. We haven't yet gotten to the full cause of the outbreak, only how it spread. The reason why I love this genre is because of the way normal people from every walk of life, are forced to survive in an almost impossible circumstance. We see how leaders surface from the group, who just give up instead of trying to fight, who wish to benefit from the disaster, who will stop at nothing to ensure their loved ones survive and who risk their lives for complete strangers. It is about how society that we all know and gain comfort in, simply crumbles into anarchy and ruin. Thanks Joe for a fantastic read!"

" OMG I love these books! Just like the first 2 I couldn't put it down. The non stop action is addictive. And with all of the zombie problems starting in Houston, where I've lived all my life, just makes it more awesome. Because of this book I'm getting out of dodge every time a hurricane comes through, just to be on the safe side hehe. Oh and 1 more thing....I WANT MOVIES! I think Joe McKinney's books would make great zombie movies. "

" One of the best zombie books I've ever read. This was believable and horrifying all at the same time. I just loved it! This book is set in Houston, Texas when three hurricanes hit the city. Sargent Eleanor Norton is the heroine and also a mother. She fights to find a way out of Houston for her and her family. Zombies have invaded Houston and the refugees must fight to stay alive. Excellent book and a must-read if you are a horror fan. "

" What happened with this one? Really liked the first in the series, loved the second. It feels as if someone else wrote the latter half of the book, the story taking a turn for the ridiculous. Also, in the latter part of the book, the author (a former police officer, I believe?) refers to AR-15s as "guns" and M-16s as "machine guns"? I'm no military / police officer / guns guy, but even I know better than that. I call foul! Ghost writer? "

" I like Joe Mckinneys stories...that said this was not my favorite, but still was was an engrossing story. Only disappointment was the dads attempt to kill the main character later in the book....I won't say more to spoil anything ...otherwise a good build up and interesting storyline overall.... "

" Uninspired zombie action. The first 150+ page didn't even mention the word zombies, zombie, undead, etc. I didn't really care about the characters nor had the desire to finish the book, yet like the undead I pushed through it mindlessly. "

" Can't wait for book four. "

" I thought it was really pretty good, Love Zombie books !!! "
— Vicki, 11/19/2013 -
" I liked it, but... It was not anywhere near as good as the previous books in the series. Sections strained my suspension of disbelief and the characterizations were sometimes shallow and at times did 180 degree flips. Detailed review to follow. "

" A good suspenseful zombie mashing read! "
— David, 6/3/2013 -
" This is the third book of Joe McKinney that I have read. Fast paced and easy to read, and he develops the characters well. "
— John, 12/7/2012 -
" The best of his three by far. It just flowed well. My only gripe was in the crossing of paths of the main characters near the end. It was difficult for me to terminate my investment in some. Well worth a read, especially if you like his earlier two works. More. "

" This one was better than the last! These books NEED to be made into movies. "

" A great premise that lose steam at the end due to repetition and poor character construction. However, it's well paced and entertaining. Worth a try. "
— René, 10/23/2011 -
" I was a little hesitant about reading this book as it takes place before the first two. However, I found it to be the best story so far. Nice to have a strong female as the main character. "

" This is just one more excellent book written by Joe Mckinney. He hasn't dissappointed me yet. He had me freaking out about the thunderstorm that was blowing through when I was reading. "
— Scott, 6/10/2011 -
" SO much fun to read! It's a violent read (of course) but fantastic!!! "
— Devin, 5/24/2011 -
" I don't think anything can beat Dead City, but this one was still good. He has a way to get you hooked on the characters. This one had the same southern zombie attack, but was still completely different. It added a bit of a mystery in with a zombie book. "

" Was ok but just didn't feel as engaged in this one as in the 2nd one. It may just be me needing a rest from vamps & zombies as I actually was enjoying the story of the characters unfolding and it felt a little like the zombie element was interrupting it for me. "
