The STATIC

In the quiet Texas countryside, something is wrong with the world-an invisible signal crawling through the air, turning the dead into something coordinated, hungry, and wrong.

When the outbreak hits, most people run or fall. But Salem Velez refuses to become either. She's a survivor with sharp instincts and a steady aim, trying to hold onto what's left of normal in a world collapsing into static and silence.

Then there's Null-an intelligence behind the infection, not quite alive, not fully gone either. It watches, learns, and spreads through the horde known as the Hollow, pulling everything toward its unknown purpose.

What begins as survival turns into something darker: a connection between hunter and hunted, signal and flesh, humanity and whatever is coming next.

In a world where every sound could be a warning-and every silence could be death-Salem has to decide if she's escaping the end... or walking straight into it.
