Book 9 in the thrilling Odium The Dead Saga Series… ‘Together, or not at all.’ Living on the island and safe from the deader hordes, Nina and Mikey finally have it all—a place they can call home, food in their bellies, and each other. It’s more than Nina ever expected to have again in this brutal, zombie-ravaged world. Mikey is finally happy. He’s breaking through his trauma and he’s on a path towards peace once more. He has the woman he loves, and they’re finally safe, together. That’s all he’s ever wanted. Yet Nina soon stumbles upon a secret that threatens to shatter their newfound sanctuary. The island may not be the blissful safe haven they thought it was, and Nina’s mother-in-law may just be the devil incarnate! When a terrible storm hits the island, uncovering some of its dark secrets and destroying its only power source, it puts everything, and everyone, in jeopardy. Now Mikey must travel back to the mainland alone if the island and everything he loves is to be saved. Nina, back on the island, must set her differences aside if she’s to help anyone survive the next few days. But with Mikey off on his own mission, she wonders in the face of adversity if she’s strong enough to be the woman he needs her to be. Mikey had been warned about the deaders surrounding SolarStore—the solar panel factory that Scotty used to work at—but nothing could have prepared him for what he discovers next. Because these deaders aren’t like any he’s encountered before. They are the very last remnants of an old world long gone, and the birth of a horrifying new tomorrow. As Mikey’s chances of returning back to the island dwindle, he realises that their motto of ‘together or not at all’, should have been taken more to heart, and that if he has to sacrifice everyone else to protect Nina—innocent or not—then so be it.
