Ward Z: Genesis

The infection begins here.

Dr Andrew Page thought she was just another terminal case. But beneath the new patient's frail exterior lurks something unnatural – an aggressive, spreading tumour that thinks for itself.

When the ward is sealed off and panic spreads, Page discovers the truth: the growth is spawning creatures that look, move, and hunger exactly like the dead. To the military, it's a threat to be burned out. To Page, it's the discovery that could redeem his ruined career – if it doesn't kill him first.

Now trapped in a hospital where every cough might be the last, Page must race to uncover the origin of the outbreak before the military wipes the building from existence… and before the infection escapes.

Ward Z: Genesis is the first book in a relentless horror–sci-fi series about a terrifying new form of life – and the people willing to kill, save, or exploit it. Previously published as Ward Z: The Original Infection.
