Economic Creatures

Book 2 of 3:<br /> <br /> Hardy is closer than ever to the truth. A new lead promises long-awaited answers, but the path to uncovering them is paved with danger. Together with Madeline, Frank, Dimitrij, and Esra, he embarks on a treacherous journey through the frozen wastelands of Russia. Along the way, they find unexpected allies in Harry and his isolated community—yet Hardy carries a burden no one can explain. His relentless fight against the creature has left its mark on him, in ways that defy logic.<br /> When a brutal attack on Madeline shakes their fragile alliance, the horror escalates. Undead swarm the community, forcing Hardy and his companions into a desperate escape aboard an old locomotive. Across the endless Russian steppes, every mile brings new threats, and every stop could be their last.<br /> <br /> But their greatest danger isn't the undead. It's the living.<br /> Just before reaching Moscow, a merciless, highly organized faction ambushes them from an attack helicopter. Their leader, the sadistic and cunning Castor, has only one target—Hardy. With Madeline and Frank as hostages, Hardy has no choice but to obey. Taken to a fortified estate, he meets Lydia, a self-proclaimed philanthropist who seems to know far more about him than she should. Over a tense dinner, alliances shift, masks drop, and Hardy finds himself at the mercy of forces beyond his understanding.<br /> <br /> Then the horde arrives.<br /> <br /> As the undead overrun Lydia's supposedly impenetrable mansion, chaos erupts. Betrayals, hidden agendas, and ruthless survival instincts collide in a nightmarish showdown where no one is safe.<br /> <br /> Denny N. Dwight's adrenaline-fueled love letter to the horror and action films of the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s continues. Packed with high-stakes action, brutal suspense, and countless nods to classic cinema, this second installment raises the stakes—and drags its heroes even deeper into the abyss.<br />
