Sample from Since the Sirens

Please enjoy a 1-chapter sample from Since the Sirens, which is the first book in my Sirens of the Zombie Apocalypse series. You will note the title of the chapter matches the name of this book. That is intentional.

Chapter 0: World of Zombies

At fifteen, a young man of Liam’s average size and weight wouldn’t even attempt to double-wield shotguns. Most men twice his age, even those in the military, wouldn’t try it in battle. But they weren’t the hero. He was. A wild-haired, lanky, scholar-athlete wannabe who just happened to be good at this one thing.

“Lock and load. I’m going in.”

“Wait up,” JT cried out as he fiddled with his sniper rifle. “I can’t take this thing in there. They’ll be on top of me before I can use it.”

“I’d use the fifty-cal if I were you.” Liam couldn’t heft such a large weapon, but JT was built like a college linebacker, even if he acted more like the fifteen-year-old wimp he’d been before the world went to hell.

“Nah. Not enough ammo. Used it all on the bridge. I’m going with these.”

Liam chuckled at his friend. The young man wore a get-up more commonly found in a biker bar—all black leather pants and jacket adorned with silver studs. His white t-shirt was as clean as when his mom set it out for him—Liam wasn't going to tell him how he knew that. Somehow, it all worked. The young man also dual-wielded his choice of weapons but with much more practical .357 Colt Pythons.

“I wish some of the other guys were here,” JT huffed as he broke down the rifle and prepped the revolvers.

Liam felt the same way, but Charlie and Jacob both fell in the fight to get them to the end of their mission. He had a few extra seconds to ponder their mistakes so he could avoid ending up like them. He looked to the sky.

They're Dead. Just a lousy spectators, now, he thought.

JT finally gave him the go ahead. “I’m ready.”

Liam pulled at the door of the secret government base they’d been searching for, though he stopped to consider his fortune. The cure to the plague was inside, as were the men and women responsible for creating the mess in the first place. With a little luck, they could take care of them both in one glorious battle. He briefly imagined the cheering crowds of survivors. The young women anxious to thank him. Fifteen or not, he'd be heralded for this.

“I said I'm ready,” JT repeated.

“I'm going!”

The expected white lab coats were there, but the people wearing them had already been infected with the Six-Sigma Virus—so named because it killed with ruthless efficiency. He didn’t dwell on the tantalizing beakers and vats of bubbling green liquid. The cure—if it existed—was useless in the moment. If they had it, why didn't the scientists use it? The answer was grim. Those ruined people had to die, just like all the others. The New World demanded blood, not a fabled cure.
