Revolutionary Dead

By: Kevan Dale

Narrated by: Mark Sanderlin

A horror novel like you’ve never imagined. Zombies like you’ve never seen.

William’s bad luck is about to turn - for the worse. Trapped behind enemy lines on the eve of revolution, the British officer has evaded colonial militia so far. When he stumbles across a quiet village, his hopes of escaping to the relative safety of Boston suddenly look promising.

Until he runs into something worse than vengeful patriots prowling the darkness.

Caught between the undead and roving bands of minutemen, William devises a desperate plan to make it out with his life. But before he can flee, he’s captured by the local villagers. Only one young woman, Carolyn, the daughter of a hated loyalist, believes his story of the unquiet dead. Between the two, they struggle to convince the others of the terror about to descend on all of them.

As the undead sweep the outskirts of the town, William and Carolyn realize there’s only one way to stop them - by heading straight to the source of the plague, to the brooding lake a mile into the woods where the dead talk.

What really happened out at the dark lake? Can they unlock the secret in time? And how far will the dead go to stop them now?

From the best-selling author of the dark fantasy trilogy The Books of Conjury comes this breakneck horror novel.

Revolutionary War plus zombies

Interesting twist on the zombie genre with the setting being the Colonies right as tensions are leading into the martial action before war. A young boy who cannot speak or hear from a cursed family with hidden secrets that threaten to not just wipe out his family, but the local town as it spreads. He's stuck with a British officer whose family bought him a commission to keep him out of England where his behavior was an embarrassment, who is more keen on getting his next drink before he is dragged into this mess as well. Problem is that the entire countryside is about to implode as the militias are beginning to take up arms against the British. Are they prepared to listen to a British officer along with a deaf mute boy in order to save their lives? Good storyline, plenty of action & characters who draw you in. I basically only read/listen to the zombie genre so it is always an awesome thrill to find a new book that is outside the box. Look forward to more from this author.
