The Quick and the Undead
In this town, dead ain’t dead enough.
In the near future, biological warfare unleashes a virus that zombifies three-quarters of the global population, sparking waves of terrorist attacks and other nastiness. It takes less than several decades for civilization to fall apart after that. Desperate, the government has resorted to putting a price on the zombies’ heads — or rather, on their pinky fingers. Now, in this harsh setting of dead towns and infested wilderness, most survivors have adapted to a new profession: zombie bounty killing. When they fetch a price, the undead are a valuable commodity — and a dangerous one. But not as dangerous as the people who hunt them for a living.
In rides Ryn Baskin, a laconic bounty killer dressed in black. Traveling by motorcycle and equipped with guns in a guitar case, an endless supply of cigars, and — most importantly — his nerves and experience, he is the ultimate survivor in a world where life is worth less than a fistful of zombie pinkies.

Welcome to the Wagner Institute for Mental Treatment and Investigations. Since 1966, Dr. Johann Wagner has guided his team of paranormal investigators and psychologists in solving supernatural crimes and unlocking the secrets of the human mind.
But now a horror from his past has come back to destroy not only Wagner, but everything he has built. Wagner once used his paranormal powers to escape the horrors of the Holocaust, but can his aging mind and body stop the terror that has returned to claim him?
