"Dust of the Dead is a pressure cooker of a thriller, a masterwork of world building, and a genuinely and refreshingly unique spin on the zombie genre, but above all, it is a beautiful dance on the line between life and death." -Joe McKinney, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Dead City "There's never been a zombie book like Dust of the Dead. It's horrifying, blackly funny, rich in pathos, and thoroughly original, and it's also one of the best L.A.-based horror novels ever written." -Lisa Morton, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Zombie Apocalypse: Washington Deceased Reboot the apocalypse! For a while, it looked like the living had won. The war against the walking dead lasted almost a decade, but it's mostly over. There are only a few straggling zombies left to take care of. Los Angeles has returned to its lattes and long commutes. It's up to a small Reclamation Crew to clean up the Zoms left behind. But when the undead dry up, their skin turns to dust. Now the hot Santa Ana winds deliver a new threat...because the Zoms were only the beginning of something far worse.
