A tainted vaccine turned tens of millions of Americans into ravenous cannibals. What’s left of the United States has descended into a violent, lawless war zone. For former Navy SEAL Cotton Wiley and his 12-year-old daughter Jean—two of just a handful of survivors who remain uninfected—every day has become a battle for survival.

Now, that battle has taken Cotton and Jean to the ruins of Houston, where they and their allies hoped to uncover the origins of the apocalypse. However, that’s a secret powerful people will kill to protect—and soon Cotton and his team find themselves in the cross-hairs of a ruthless assassin.

With hordes of cannibals ready to devour them alive and Black-Ops teams scouring the city for survivors, Cotton and his friends are in a race against time to find what they need and escape with their lives—but the price of failure could be even higher than they know. Because there’s no limit to what the people behind this apocalypse will do to maintain their secrets—up to and including thermonuclear annihilation itself.

The Dead and the Wasted is the thrilling third installment in the Cannibal Warfare series—raising the stakes in a new take on the Zombie Apocalypse genre.

Really love all the twist and turns in this series. Never a dull moment in any of the three novels in this series. See there is a fourth one not available on here. Hoping it will be soon. Great series.

Book has characters that you can connect with, unfortunately it does tend to kill off some good ones. Zombies evolving, but there is a potential cure. Will follow this into the next book.
