Would you try to save the world? There is an evil cabal at the heart of government. For years it has bribed, blackmailed, and murdered in pursuit of global domination. In an attempt to destroy it, Tom Clemens rigged the presidential election. His candidate won, but the conspiracy wasn’t stopped. Framed for murder, Tom is on the run. Searching for evidence of the cabal’s plans, he is in Manhattan when the impossible happens. People attack one another. The victims die. They come back. Zombies. Uncertain who created the outbreak, but knowing it’s connected to the conspiracy, Tom flees New York. As law and order breaks down, the undead spread throughout America. Tom searches for the scientist who might be able to stop the outbreak, unaware that the conspirators are searching for him. From Surviving the Evacuation, this is the story of Sholto, the beginning of the outbreak, and the people who tried to stop it. Please note: As the President of the United States is a background character, and the presidential election a background event, American English has been used in this book though with some British spellings in deference to the fact that most of Surviving the Evacuation takes place in the United Kingdom.
It is a week since the outbreak began in New York. The president has been betrayed. The vice-president is dead. The government has collapsed. The conspirators are close to victory.Having narrowly escaped agents of the cabal, Tom Clemens heads to Washington hoping to get word of the conspiracy to the president. The highways become impassable, filled with millions fleeing from the cities. Towns are fortified, but it is too late. The infection has already spread throughout the country. Nowhere is safe from the undead.As refugees storm the towns, and zombies fill the smoking ruins, survivors become more deadly a threat than the impossibly living dead. Still hopeful he can find the cause of the outbreak, and so end it, Tom fights his way through an undead America. As he searches for the cabal, he is unaware that they are searching for him.The story of Tom Clemens / Sholto continues in Surviving The Evacuation: Book 1: London. Please note: As the President of the United States is a background character, and the presidential election a background event, American English has been used in this book though with some British spellings as most of Surviving the Evacuation takes place in the United Kingdom.
