The Quieting. The Quiet Ascent, #1

THE WORLD DIDN'T END. IT SYNCHRONIZED. When a routine emergency broadcast test sends a mysterious signal across the country, people freeze mid-motion-heads turning west as if listening to something no one else can hear. Minutes later, the biting begins. Paramedic Jonah Vale survives the first night of the outbreak. but the bite changes him. The infected hesitate around him. They move past him like water around a stone.
They don't recognize him as prey. Or as human. As cities collapse and terrifying mutations emerge, Mara Caldwell fights to keep a fragile group alive in a world where night belongs to the dead. But the infected aren't acting randomly. They're responding to something. And Jonah is beginning to hear it. Something calling from beyond the signal. Something that isn't finished. A GRIPPING POST-APOCALYPTIC THRILLER FOR FANS OF:The Last of Us .
