Extinction Level Event: Book One

A gripping apocalyptic thriller where sharp humor, medical science, and authentic America fuse in a catastrophe no one sees coming.

Violence explodes across coastal Wilmington, North Carolina. Officials blame a designer drug—until dogs and children show the same feral behavior. Something else is happening, and residents aren’t being told the truth.

Former Staff Sergeant Peter Sullivan leads like a soldier but lives like a disaster. PhD candidate Phebe Marcelino has never faced real danger—until her world fractures overnight. Together with a ragtag unit of veteran Marines and Army Rangers turned first responders, they fight to survive a city spiraling into kill or be killed chaos.

When special operations helicopters thunder overhead, one question becomes impossible to ignore: What is the government planning?

“Great characters and believable action. Speaking as a cynical old soldier and nitpicking fool, all I can say about this book is it rocks hard, and I could not wait to see the sequel. Most of these types of books are boring and derivative—not this one.”—Amazon reviewer "The Old Soldier" Michael L.

“This one goes in the reread pile! Love this book. It puts a new spin on zombie fiction, and quite frankly, scared the crap out of me, since out of all the zombie books I’ve read, this one seems like it could really happen! The storyline, humor, and action helped keep me reading instead of heading out to buy a bunker.”—Amazon reviewer Carolyn.
