About the book
The Enemy is among us . . .First the sickness rotted the adults' minds. Then their bodies. Now they stalk the streets of London, hunting human flesh. The Holloway crew are survivors. They've fought their way across the city and made it to the Natural History Museum alive--just barely. But their fight will never end while the Enemy lives, unless there's another way. The Holloway crew has made it to the Natural History Museum, but when the children return to the streets for medical supplies, it is no longer clear who or what is their enemy. The plot contains profanity and violence. Book #5
