Full Description
An unstoppable virus. Everything we took for granted is gone. Only the strong will survive.
In the aftermath of a devastating flu pandemic, a military-led relief effort is evacuating UK survivors to a mass quarantine zone on the Isle of Wight. In the political and moral vacuum that follows, refugees trade their freedom for food and shelter.
Riley and the others living at Hurst Castle must relocate to an abandoned hotel on the clifftops of Freshwater Bay to escape the descent into anarchy. Riley must keep her promise and leave the relative safety of their new home on the island to search for Zed's daughter in the refugee camps.
"Simply unputdownable! The type of book that draws you in. A fast-paced and thrilling read. Highly recommended." - Mary's Bookcase.
The Allied mission to investigate the causes of the outbreak leads Zed to a classified government research facility to interview the archivist with detailed knowledge of the UK's century-long experiments with chemical and biological agents.
After her kidnap from Osbourne House, Terra remains embedded with Briggs and the rebel group, helpless to stop Briggs's attempts to disrupt the Allied reconstruction efforts. As more locals rally to the rebel's cause, the prospect of civil war seems inevitable.
If you enjoy fast-paced, post-apocalyptic stories like The Day of the Triffids, The Road, Station Eleven, The Stand, and The Atlantis Gene, you'll love The Hurst Chronicles series.
