A New Threat is Rising... On the heels of a deadly fight with the Vultures, Hope’s Dawn is reeling. Several people remain in critical condition from the battle, and Hope’s Dawn is running low on basic first-aid supplies to care for them. As Jon struggles to find his place in the camp, he now must leave with Brooke and Terrence and head out into a dying world occupied by zombies to find the supplies they need before more innocent people needlessly die. Following an encounter with another band of survivors out in the post-apocalyptic wasteland, Jon and the others learn of a nearby prison which may contain the key to Hope’s Dawn’s survival. But they also find out that the fight with the Vultures might have only been the beginning of a war… Dead Lies in the second book in the bestselling zombie apocalypse series, Dead South, written by Zach Bohannon.
