It only took one good deed to start the apocalypse. It’s going to take a whole lot of bad ones to stop it.
And Quinn Keegan—mobster, hitman, thief—is just the man to do those deeds. Problem is, he doesn't want to. All he wants to do is find his target in the Midwestern laboratory where the man works, put a couple bullets in him, then head back to the east coast.
But now he's trapped with a terrified genius and a beautiful reporter inside a building that's wired to blow and filled with people who are crazy violent and nearly impossible to kill. And even if he manages to escape, he's sure that civilization—and everything that goes with it, like good steak, classic TV, and Jameson Irish Whiskey—is going to come to an end.
With killers closing in from the outside and crazed cannibals chasing him within, Quinn has to escape the Dahlgren Medical Research Center and try to do the one thing he knows he's uniquely unqualified for:
Save the world.
