When a cure for the common cold is created, the world was ecstatic. People were using this new drug without the knowledge of it not being tested once. The first case was in Los Angeles, then New York City, next, Chicago. It spread faster than the cold itself. The disorientation, heart palpitations, headaches, fever. It was the start of a new disease, one that would drop the population by 90 percent. Desperate for survival, Lily and Oliver Prince have been hiding, scavenging, and repeating since day one. When Oliver is taken, Lily needs to make a decision; does she accept her fate, or does she trust the man that would be her only means of escape?

City Six
In the year 2052, a devastating virus, engineered by the Russian government as a bioweapon, escapes containment before its completion. Within a year, the world spirals into chaos. The virus not only turns its victims into the undead but also renders the very air toxic with the breath of the infected, forcing the remnants of humanity to rely on gas masks to survive. At the heart of this global catastrophe is City Six-a fortified, isolated city on the flat plains of an undisclosed location in Texas. It is said to be the last safe haven left on Earth. The story follows a survivor on a desperate journey to reach City Six, battling not just the relentless undead but also the perils of a collapsing world. But as the survivor draws closer to the fabled city in 2054, an even greater threat emerges.
