The Dead Weight: Resistance

By Jo Salazar

Quinn is out of options. After the zombie-like "carriers" invaded her juvenile treatment facility, she had to fight to survive. Weeks later, she's alone, devastated, and nursing a life-threatening injury. She needs help. Now.

Salvation comes in the form of New City-a safe haven risen from the ashes of St. Louis-but only at a price. In exchange for medical treatment, Quinn joins a Rover squad, a band of debtors and criminals assigned to protect the city against swarms of carriers.

Barely seventeen, Quinn is underestimated by the Rovers-but not for long. How could they know that the thing that has made Quinn an outsider all her life makes her a champion in the apocalypse? But this new life presents a new challenge: Can Quinn navigate the city's rules and the intricate alliances she needs to survive? And what will happen if her new allies see her true face?
