The latest novel in the New York Times bestselling series! 17 million fans can't be wrong!
Out of the ashes of a devastated Woodbury, Georgia, two opposing camps
of ragtag survivors develop – each one on a collision course with the
other.
Underground, in the labyrinth of ancient tunnels and mine
shafts, Lilly Caul and her motley crew of senior citizens, misfits, and
children struggle to build a new life. But a secret ambition still
burns in Lilly's heart and soul. She wants her beloved town of Woodbury back from the plague of walkers, and now the only thing that stands in
her way currently roams the wasted backwaters of Georgia...
Way out in the hinterlands, amidst the rising tide of walkers that seem to be
pushing in from all directions, the psychotic Reverend Jeremiah Garlitz
rebuilds his army of followers with a diabolical secret weapon. He has
designs on the destruction of Lilly and her crew – the very people who
vanquished his cultish church – and now, for the first time, he has the
means to bring a special brand of hell down upon the tunnel dwellers.
The final confrontation between these two human factions unleashes an
unthinkable weapon – forged from the monstrous hordes of undead,
perfected by a madman, and soaked in the blood of innocents.
