Soon the ward is in lockdown, and Page is the only man who might be able to save the word from a terrifying new life-form. The new patient's tumor is spreading and seemingly becoming sentient, creating a strain of creatures that looks, sound and act exactly like zombies.
For Page, this is a chance to reclaim his reputation and make a huge breakthrough. For the military, however, the creatures are a deadly threat. When the ward is sealed off, Page finds himself in a race against time, not only to discover the truth about the creatures but also to stop the military destroying the entire building – with everyone, infected or not, trapped inside.
Ward Z: Genesis is the first book in a series about a deadly infection, and about the different factions that try to destroy – and sometimes profit from – a new form of life.
