Summary

It starts in a laboratory. A man-made strain of flesh-eating virus. Created by a power-hungry cartel. Capable of turning victims into brain-dead carnivores. Smuggled aboard a cruise ship that's about to set sail . . .

One by one, the passengers are exposed. A U.S. senator. A young couple. An undercover agent. A beautiful assassin. Some will be infected. Others will survive. But no one will be spared if the outbreak isn't contained and the dead outnumber the living.

Enter Delta Force operative Juan Perez. He's fought the deadliest killers in the darkest hellholes on earth. But he's never seen anything like this-an apocalyptic cargo of pure zombie mayhem heading for the coast. If Perez and his SEAL team can't stop it, America, and quickly the entire population of the world, are finished. The plague years will begin . . .

Riviting

This was an excellent story and well narrated. It took a while to get into the zombies but worth the wait

well designed plot

this is a well written action story. the plot is pretty well though through, the characters well designed, although I didn't get attached to any of them, and for the most part it is well written. to me not a tue zombie novel, they just happen to be the antagonist('s weapons) and so it lacks the apocalyptic/ survival element that I enjoy - that's just a preference though. I'll be taking a look at some of his others in the series, maybe that element i crave will come to the fore.

Okay.

Seemed a bit monotonous as the characters were all the same :beautiful or handsome, but deadly with a gun and able to get out of any situation! Listened to this over three or four days as couldn’t keep my interest.
