Operation Phoenix

After the Second Civil War shattered America, the undead came to finish the job- or so it seemed. Just as hope faded, a vaccine turned the tide, giving humanity a chance to rebuild. But in the forgotten ruins of the past, for some, the nightmare never ended.

For five years, Bob Kelley has lived alone in an abandoned evacuation shelter, haunted by the screams of those he couldn't save. Outside, civilization is slowly clawing its way back-but something far worse than the undead now stalks the streets.

A fanatical cult known as The Ascended believes the zombie plague was a divine gift-a sacred cleansing-and they're determined to finish what war and virus could not. Armed with his father's shotgun, hard-earned militia training, and a past that won't let him go, Bob emerges from the darkness to face a new kind of enemy.

Joined by a ragtag team of survivors and soldiers, he sets out to stop the cult before their madness consumes what's left of the world. But salvation won't come easy. Every step deeper into the ruined metro reveals a dark conspiracy, an army of the risen dead, and a final reckoning-with the fate of humanity hanging in the balance.
