Hurst: The Post-Pandemic Thriller (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781838232290)

Where would you go to escape a deadly virus that's infected billions?

When the Millennial Virus rampaged unchecked across the world, the pandemic swept away everything we held dear. Small groups took refuge where they could. There was no time to mourn. Survival was all that mattered.

For those lucky enough to call Hurst their home the medieval fortress provides sanctuary from the surrounding wasteland. Far away from the smoking ruins of the cities, on the south coast of England, a lawless power vacuum exists without electricity or government. As Zed Samuels and the other survivors struggle to rebuild their shattered lives, rival groups covet the castle's closely-guarded resources, probing its defences.

When a military-led relief operation threatens to tip the balance of power, Hurst's stalwart leader, Jack, faces a desperate choice. He must decide whether to set aside their differences and join an alliance that promises new hope or unite against the newcomers and their plans for reconstruction. Zed and Jack must discover the truth about the Allies before it's too late, but who can they trust?

The battle for Hurst has begun. The virus is the least of their concerns.
