Book description
From the author of Haunted, The Ghosts of Sleath and Ash, comes an
electrifying action-thriller that will take readers to new levels of
terror and excitement.
In 1945, Hitler unleashes the Blood Death on Britain as his final act
of vengeance.
Those who died at once were the lucky ones. The really unfortunate took
years. The survivors; people like me who had the blood group that kept
us safe from the disease were now targets for those who believed our
blood could save them.
I survived for three years. I lived alone, spending my days avoiding the
fascist Blackshirts who wanted my blood for their dying leader. Then I
met the others - and life got complicated all over again… 'Break-neck
pace! a story for those who like their plots exploding with excitement
and fear, set against an apocalyptic backdrop. A perfect
adrenalin-packed alternative to Booker Prize pretension'
