In this brutal crucible, morality is a long-dead luxury, and survival demands a descent into the darkest corners of the soul.

They promised perfection. The Black-Box program built Echo-units — cloned soldiers engineered to never tire, never falter, never fail. Dr. Elara Kane called it evolution. General Heller called it the future of war. But Sergeant Major Cole Maddox saw what they really became. It started with a single patient in a hospital ER. One bite. One moan for brains. Then it spread city to city, faster than bullets, fire, or bombs could stop it. Napalm couldn’t. Nuclear fire couldn’t. Humanity’s weapons only turned the world to ash.
