Killing has never been something Keo shieded away from, but the events of the last year have made him rethink his bloody past. Now, Keo has embraced his old ways and set his sights on a new target - and there is nothing more dangerous than a man with nothing to lose.

Still stranded in the Louisiana countryside, Will, Danny, and Gaby race against the clock to get back to their friends, but the road home is treacherous, and enemies lie in wait. Meanwhile, Lara and the survivors at Song Island continue preparations for an inevitable attack. But what does a third-year medical student know about fending off a full-frontal assault?

The long night is upon them. After five years of hard work, dedication, and too many sacrifices, Lara thought she had made progress in bringing what remained of humanity together in her small part of the world. She also thought they had seen the last of the ghouls as a major threat. She was wrong on both counts. An unnatural alliance between two enemies, forged in secrecy, has finally been revealed. With Keo away on a mission, the real threat is at the gates, leaving Lara, Gaby, and a city full of civilians unprepared for a long and relentless night of fighting.

Except this is one war he can’t turn his back on. What’s a reformed mercenary to do? Lara didn’t want this. Not another war to fight. She’s been struggling to bring order to chaos since "The Walk Out" and doing it with as little bloodshed as possible. But Fenton is forcing her hand, and sometimes you have to get a little bloody, whether you want to or not.

Hunted through the Louisiana woods by a mysterious paramilitary group, Keo and Norris are about to reach the end of the line. After months of running, hiding, and fighting for their lives, the ex-mercenary and the ex-cop will finally discover the identity of their pursuers - and why they will never, ever give up. The planet may have been purged, and the ghouls now hold complete dominion over the night, but in the day man still remains the deadliest species.
