The Phoenix Survivors

Nine months after Project Phoenix, the injection meant to give people super speed, super strength, and resistance to danger and illness has turned one-third of the United States into ravenous lurkers and killed more than half of us.

Abandoned by the government, with phones, television, and the outside world gone, the rest survive in scattered communities and fight hooded, hungry creatures that hide in the dark and can be stopped only by fire.

I learned we were not truly alone after superhumans who once worked for the government, and who received the only batch of the Injection that worked, took me captive.

When the Doctor and his cronies caught us in New York, secrets about me, Chase Knight, and Maverick Brooks came out, and we escaped only with help from a scientist who had worked for the NRI.

Our attempt to destroy the largest lurker nest on the east coast failed, yet we are not finished; lurkers are no longer the only ones who must answer, and this war ends with our victory or with everything burned down.
