RipTide

Afflicted #2

by Derek Shupert

Nowhere to run…

Soon after his escape from an underground testing facility in Africa, Mike finds himself on the run, infected, and very much alone. Determined to return to the US and his beloved wife Becky, Mike must now do what he can to retrieve the cure and elude the gaze of those who would do him harm.

Aboard the Titan, a floating nightmare containing hidden secrets, Mike hopes to track down the cure, and in the process finds more than he bargained for. Will Mike have the strength to fight off the infection and return home? Or will the devastating truth about the company be taken out to sea?

In RipTide, morality and truth go head-to-head against the will of the human spirit. Continue the epic series and grab your copy today!

Interview with the Author

Q – So, what makes the Afflicted series so special?

A – It’s really a blended mixture of things I’ve wanted to see in a novel for some time. I love reading zombie books and wanted to write something with a different twist. I didn’t want to do another you get bit and turn type of book. I wanted to add in the “What if’s” to get the reader engaged and make them think of the possibilities.

Q - What order should I read the books in?

A – If you want to read the Afflicted series in order, I'd suggest the following sequence:


- Afflicted: Genesis (prequel)

- Afflicted: Patient Zero

- Afflicted: RipTide

- Afflicted: Dead Reckoning (coming soon)


Q – Why should readers give the Afflicted series a try?

A – Because the Afflicted series is a thrill ride from the start of the first page. Readers who like fast paced action and lots of suspense will enjoy the books.

Thanks for reading!
