Publisher Description
A SOLDIER'S MISSION IN A WORLD GONE TO HELL: SURVIVE, RESCUE, REBUILD
Nothing has gone according to plan.
To Captain Lee Harden, Project Hometown feels like a distant dream and the completion of his mission seems unattainable.
Wounded and weaponless, he has stumbled upon a group of survivors that seems willing to help. But a tragedy in the group causes a deep rift to come to light and forces him into action. In the chaos of the world outside, Lee is pursued by a new threat: someone who will stop at nothing to get what he has.
This is the second book in the bestselling Remaining series, telling a gritty tale of survival, perseverance and fighting to get back what has been lost.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Molles (The Remaining) continues the vigorously authored, formidable saga of army captain Lee Harden's mission to restore civilization while survivors fight off hordes of savage zombie-like infected. Injured and overwhelmed, Harden barely managed to survive the first novel, but having been rescued, he is now on surer footing. Molles continues to supply Harden with enough depth to keep him from becoming a stock action character, but escalates both the intense combat and grim horror, as well as substantially expanding the cast of characters. Harden manages to get to his first bunker of cached supplies, a victory that is soon overshadowed by the increasingly disturbing tactical skills of the so-called zombies, the megalomaniacal leader of a band of predatory raiders, and some truly surprising betrayals. A cramped and claustrophobic hospital provides both a forbidding backdrop for a harrowing showdown, and an opportunity to stretch the story further into what should be an eagerly awaited sequel.
