Reaper

Deep in the heart of the Amazon jungle, two Yanomani hunters crack open a long-forgotten temple and are nearly killed by the mindless, cannibal monster they find trapped within. They return to their village carrying a terrible plague…

A team from Utah’s ultra-secret Blackwood bioweapons group races to Brazil to harvest the mythical disease—codenamed Phoenix—known only from historical records.

To Randall Powell, Blackwood’s sadistic commander, Phoenix may be the ultimate bioweapon—a disease that transforms men into rabid monsters. He will use fear, blackmail—even torture—to force microbiologists Teresa Frost and Paul Klassen to turn Phoenix from legend to reality.

But someone is a step ahead of them…

Frost and her Delta Force team reach the Amazon only to find bodies burned beyond recognition, along with tales of a beautiful and merciless “demon” that slaughtered every one of the infected, then disappeared back into the jungle…

No demon, but perhaps not quite human either, Solenne is blood-bonded to Phoenix—a disease that twists humans into creatures her ancestors called reapers. She has fought its curse before, and will stop at nothing to wipe the infection out again—this time once and for all.

Back in the depths of Blackwood’s biolabs, Frost and Klassen make a horrifying discovery. Phoenix does not simply kill. Powered by both a virus and a medical marvel beyond comprehension, the disease truly resurrects, producing vicious, hungry revenants that live on after death. Real zombies.

As events spin out of control and Solenne races toward Utah, Frost and her Delta Force guards must face the growing legion of undead spawned by Powell’s dark experiments, if they are to prevent a plague that could wipe out mankind—a true Armageddon machine.

But deep in Blackwood’s abattoirs, tampering with Phoenix has given birth to something even deadlier than a reaper… Something so powerful that perhaps nothing on Earth can stop it…

Solenne may be humanity’s only chance.
