In the midst of a global pandemic, a group of evacuees are marooned atop a skyscraper in a major city after a terrible helicopter crash. Abandoning the streets to millions of hungry infected, the survivors seal off the structure at the 10th floor and string wires between it and other buildings to avoid being eaten alive by the hordes rampaging below. But dwindling supplies force those still alive to take greater risks as they struggle to survive hundreds of feet off the ground.

VERTICAL CITY, PART 2, picks up as Wyatt, a high-stakes skyscraper salvager, has a clandestine meeting with the underground leader of the Vertical City’s outer buildings only to be sent out on a dangerous, long-range patrol into the land of the dead that will change everything.

In the explosive conclusion to the series, Wyatt and the heroes of books 1 through 3 are caught and trapped inside a skyscraper after they learn the terrifying truth behind The Vertical City. Struggling to find a way out, they’re forced to scale down the side of the building and take shelter in the infected sections of the city, avoiding hundreds of thousands of hungry dead as they plot to bring down the men who are responsible for murdering their friends and families.
