An unpredictable side effect from Remedium Fame, a shot administered to control the appetite of an ever growing population, has lead to the mass cannibalism around the globe.
In this post-apocalyptic world, Volker and Roxanne Hart do what they can to survive before learning of a ferry on the east coast of the US that's transporting those who arrive to the other, less affected continents.
They race to reach the coast before the final refuge boarding embarks from the ruins of the USA.

The Last Safe Place
The outbreak began quietly. A fever, a bite, a moment of confusion-then chaos. In a matter of days, an unknown virus has torn through the city, turning hospitals into slaughterhouses and streets into hunting grounds. It moves too fast, spreads too easily, and the world as they knew it is collapsing. For Miguel, Idz, Andy, and the others, survival isn't just about escaping the infected-it's about the choices they make, the lines they cross, and the people they refuse to leave behind. Trapped in a city unraveling by the hour, they search for the one thing that no longer seems to exist: A place that's still safe. But how long before safety becomes just another illusion?
Dead Man's Cradle
In a world ravaged by war and a deadly disease, survival has become a grim game. When a radiative gas bomb is dropped on China, the fallout triggers the rise of terrifying creatures-the undead. But these are no ordinary zombies. The disease creates different classes of zombies, each more dangerous than the last, and it continues to spread, altering the very nature of humanity. Only those who refused the vaccine survived-but even they aren't safe. Chaoxing is one of the lucky few, but luck won't save him for long. When he encounters an unusual zombie child, his world is turned upside down. What's worse, the child isn't like the others. He's a zombie... but not in the way Chaoxing thought zombies would be. As the two navigate the dangers of the new world, Chaoxing must face the harsh reality of survival and question the true nature of the creatures around him.

The Z Contingency
The zombie apocalypse is coming. A scientist at the CDC has that terrifying realization when infected victims start displaying the symptoms predicted by his model. A virus responsible for hemorrhagic fevers is mutating into something that zombifies its victims instead of killing them. Realizing the only hope is to get ahead of it, he sets out to create a vaccine, but to create a vaccine he needs a sample of the virus. He tries to enlist the aid of a colleague to help him create the very virus he wants to eradicate, but she refuses on ethical grounds. Witnessing the horrific transformation of an infected patient forces her to reconsider, but before they can start working on a vaccine, their virus samples are stolen. As they criss-cross the country on a hunt for a cure, the paths of the two scientists cross those of a shadow organization on a secret mission, and a loose-knit network of zombie prepper groups whose loyalties are unclear. I am editing The Z Contingency for an updated edition, and I thought Wattpad would be a good platform to get improvements suggested by readers. The first edition of the book is already available for the Kindle, Nook, and Kobo at major online resellers, and is also at Smashwords.
