Sixteen year old Rebecca Robinson is the sole survivor of the Australian Apocalypse. The death toll is at an estimated 22 million. The entire world wants to know what happened down there and since the military aren’t talking, everyone is looking to Rebecca for answers.

A deadly new virus is spreading through an immigration detention center in the outback. It is 100% lethal. There is no cure. As a precaution the Australian Government has ordered a nationwide quarantine. No one is allowed to leave the country. No one is allowed to enter. School across the country has been canceled.
Despite these warning signs Rebecca and her friends are in the mood to celebrate their extended summer vacation, blissfully unaware of the dangers that are coming their way.
Over the next few days, things go from bad to worse as the virus begins to spread throughout Australia, killing anyone infected and turning them into ferocious undead monsters. Worse, the military have been ordered to contain the spread of infection and to cover up all trace of the outbreak by any means necessary. Mass panic and hysteria grip the population as the plague reaches the outskirts of Sydney.
Rebecca and her friends realize that it's no longer safe to simply go home and lock the door. They need to make a run for it. They need to escape from Australia.

Praise
Wow... I applaud you sir or more like I shout and scream like a new crazed fan 😂 it only took me a day or two to finish and I’m distraught at the fact that I can’t find extinction level (book 2) anywhere. This book just grabs you right from the get go and doesn’t let you go until you finish it and then like any drug it has you needing more. I’m a huge fan of apocalyptic books and movies and I love when a book can just make you feel like your the main character like instead of reading your experiencing everything that’s happening which makes everything more captivating. Honestly can not wait till I find the other books in this series 😂 y’all read this, you may think “oh well you know that she obviously survives by reading the first chapter” but once you stop concentrating on that little nugget, you get sucked into how everything is put into a “real” aspect and how things would no doubt end up happening if something like this did happen here in Australia. Anyways I’ve rambled a bit 😅 praise to James Harden you are very skilled at what you do and I’m glad I stumbled across your book
