Odium 5
After almost being killed by the Hell’s Highwaymen – Nina and Michael are forced to take refuge at their headquarters until Michael recovers. Finding a new purpose in life isn’t easy, but Nina is realising that she’s stronger than she believes, at least, that’s what Shooter – the brutish, blue-eyed president of the biker gang, keeps telling her.
Meanwhile, Mikey is trapped, and all he knows is that he is in for a whole world of pain unless he can think of a way to escape before Tim and Clare get hungry again.
Odium 6
Nina is fighting more than just her demons; because the greatest enemy now isn’t the deaders – it’s humans. Determined to eradicate the Savages, Nina must settle an age-old argument and bring together mortal enemies. Because it’s more than just their own survival at risk now…it’s everyone’s. Running blindly toward danger is what Nina does best—only this time her eyes are wide open. She knows the risks, but she also knows that time is running out for Mikey; the Savages are hungry, and they’ll only play with their food for so long.
Odium 7
A year has gone by and Nina is filled with rage and grief for her many losses. More bitter and broken than she’s ever been, she wonders if she can ever find her way back to the light. But Shooter hasn’t given up on her yet, and neither have the rest of the Devil’s Highwaymen.
Mikey, living at Haven, is not the man he once was. He hunts. He kills. He protects…but inside he has fallen apart. He may have survived the Savages’ with all his body parts intact, but will he ever get back what they did take…
Odium 8
After his violent encounter with the Savages, Mikey is understandably suspicious of strangers. So when a new group of people come into the fold, his motto is shoot first and ask questions later. Everyone trusts the fresh arrivals quickly…but he sees deception in every face. Is he the issue, or has everyone else has let their guard down too soon?
Exiled from the life she has built, and alone once more, Nina finds herself desperately seeking a new refuge. A place to call home once more. She’s heading towards the place her journey began all those years ago…The Island.

Mikey is finally happy. He’s breaking through his trauma and he’s on a path towards peace once more. He has the woman he loves, and they’re finally safe, together. That’s all he’s ever wanted. Yet Nina soon stumbles upon a secret that threatens to shatter their newfound sanctuary. The island may not be the blissful safe haven they thought it was, and Nina’s mother-in-law may just be the devil incarnate!

Mankind is holding on by bloody and desperate fingers. Death comes when you least expect it; in the quiet of the night or in the harsh light of day. It sneaks in and takes everyone and everything you ever loved, until you’re left with nothing at all. And the person standing in the aftermath is forever changed.
The Origins 1.5
When hell claws its way up from the dark depths of the earth, and the dead begin to walk, for most it can only mean one thing – death. But for some, the zombie apocalypse is only the beginning of a dark yet brave new life for them.

The person you thought you could trust to save you, are weaker than you think, and the person you thought would become zombie bait so you could make your escape are a hell of a lot tougher than you thought.
