Publisher's Summary

Picking up immediately where the first book in the series ended, Beauty and Dread continues the saga of a small group of extraordinary people.

Their unique genetic code allowed them to survive a devastating global pandemic. Now they must continue to fight for their lives, their humanity, and their town’s enviable progress toward rebooting civilization.

The tiny population of Liberty, Kansas, has weathered disease, starvation, marauders from without, and dissension from within. Still, it is a shining star of hope in an otherwise bleak and desolate land. But a madman approaches with an army at his heels, spurred by blood-lust and fantasies of revenge. Will he prevail, usurping the town and murdering its citizens? Or will this eclectic group of geniuses and misfits fight back?

Intricately plotted, superbly paced, and brought to life by fully-developed protagonists, quirky supporting characters, and charming villains, the Troop of Shadows Chronicles is a tour de force. It is the unfolding story of the greatest threat humankind has ever faced and is populated with some of the most entertaining people you’ll ever meet.
