Publisher Description:

As a police detective, he wants to know is who's behind the murders that have been targeting the wealthy of his city. So he starts digging into very dangerous ground. He runs into something out of an apocalyptic horror. Something which cannot be reasoned with, something which cannot be bought, something which has no remorse about ending it's victim's lives. And adds the victims to the ranks of the killers as zombies...

The living dead and zombie books were as delusional and unheard of as a sane communist dictator. The Zombie Survival Guide is advice handed out by a drugged out homeless man on 5th street. All Detective Lane knows is that 6 feet under is no longer for good. At least not anymore. He doesn't have a chance of killing something already dead. Not a chance in hell.

As every second ticks by, the undead's ranks grow, and the city is closer to being lost. With his own life the next targeted for murder, can Terry find the out what's bringing the dead back to life and turning them into killers? Or will the city become a very new type of grave yard?

In 1934, while living in New York, the heart of the publishing industry, Hubbard struck up a friendship with the city's medical examiner--a relationship that started his education in undetectable crime and provided him with authoritative clinical background for his detective stories.

"A rollicking horror yarn that] taps into the current craze for zombies. . . . heart-pounding." --Publishers Weekly
