The Rabid: Book 2 The apocalypse is in full swing! With their mother in the hands of The General, Timmy and Bethany find themselves isolated and on the run. But, it’s not just the Rabid hunting them. Timmy has come into possession of what may be the most powerful weapon on earth, a cross shaped necklace, and there are some very dangerous people that will stop at nothing to get their hands on it. After Timmy and Bethany are saved from an ambush by a paramilitary group, led by an ex-special forces operative and his sword wielding sister, they are given food and refuge within a small community of survivors tucked away in the suburbs of Plano, Texas. But, can Timmy and Bethany trust their new friends? Or do they have an agenda all their own? The Rabid: Rise is the second book in the heart stopping post-apocalyptic series The Rabid.
