About this series
My name is John.
I was a Marine Corps sniper once. Now it's a bit harder to know what I am. A series of shadowy events beyond my control have left me as something less than human… or, maybe, something more.
The head of Roanoke & Raleigh had spent considerable resources to hunt us down at the museum. Holding some of my people hostage, injecting another with a capsule-sized bomb set to detonate in forty-eight hours, and teaming me up with a woman from my past I had thought long dead, the Man in the Black Suit did all he could to secure my cooperation to go out on one more mission.
Can we all work together to find and exfiltrate this new human target from the dozens of buildings and hundreds of acres of the Creedmoor Psychiatric Institution—a crumbling mental hospital complex? Can I get the Man in the Black Suit's prize back before I lose the people I care for? Or will I lose everything I hold dear in the process… including myself?

- Day Zero: Day Zero, #1
1
My name is John. A freak injury ended the only career I ever knew. I stepped off a plane in New England with the hopes of heading home, but a hitchhiking pit stop at a gas station trapped me in an island community when the dead started to reanimate. The news said it was a plague. I don't really care. What's important now is fending off the undead to keep these residents safe. I just don't know how long we will survive. Strange things keep happening. The dead are popping up in town. People are disappearing. Human threats loom. I am only one man.
- Day Zero: Gaunt Man: Day Zero, #2
2
My name is John. The ghosts of those I failed to protect haunt me. The Gaunt Man,a new persistent hallucination, claws at the cracks of my sanity. I must keep ahead of all of these phantoms. I need to get home, even if it means facing a road full of rotting walkers. People on the road have chosen to follow me. Can they count on me for their survival or will the knights of a strange new kingdom tear us apart? Will they be lost to me? Will I be lost to them? Or will I simply descend into madness and be left as just another of the undead. Jay Bonansinga, New York Times bestselling author of ROBERT KIRKMAN'S THE WALKING DEAD: DESCENT says of the first Day Zero book of the series... DAY ZERO by Charles Ingersoll gets under the reader's skin quicker than a walker bite! Authentic, terse, economical, surgically precise, the book is a barn-burner that reads like a cross between Tom Clancy and the Marquis de Sade!
- Day Zero: Bad Company: Day Zero, #4
4
My name is John. We hunted down the man named Westsmith. We walked into a mouth of madness and a sea of the undead to do so, losing half our people as a result. Was it a fair trade? The real Man in the Black Suit presiding in a glass and steel tower in the middle of Midtown Manhattan—the man with the military means to wipe us out with a snap of the finger and a deployment of mercenaries and fully-armed gunships—wants Westsmith for his own reasons. I want my people back, too. I want the explosive device out of Jude's neck. I want to just leave all of this despair and violence behind. I want to be left alone. Westsmith is the key. I give him over to the Man in the Black Suit and, in return, will save the people I have come to care about. Maybe, letting people get close to me is why I was so easily manipulated to begin with. But, if anything happens to them, the citadel of Roanoke & Raleigh and the Man in the Black Suit at the top of it will fall by my hands. That is a promise.
- Day Zero: Family Matters: Day Zero
There may be something wrong with me. My therapist told me to stop drinking and wean off my meds. He advised me to confront my demons... namely my alcoholic father and my co-dependent mother. When the undead filled the streets outside my family's apartment, I took it as a welcome--if terrifying--distraction from my daily life. Which is worse... relentless domestic abuse or the hungry undead threatening our lives at every one of our barred windows? It wasn't all that tough a choice. My name is Jude Sawyer. Welcome to my world.

Charles Ingersoll
The love of zombies was in my blood immediately after watching George Romero’s Night of the Living Dead at a far too young and inappropriate age. That feeling never faded, festering for forty years before that fever finally broke and beckoned me to write my own “Great American Zombie Novel”. One story became a second. Two stories became an ongoing series. I love comic cons, cosplay, movies and television, guns, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the supernatural. I currently reside in what the South Carolina locals call the Upstate with the two real loves of my life, my very own real-life Jude (Judy) and a certain fur baby canine named Holly—both straight off the pages of Day Zero universe. A special thank you to my partner in crime, and to everyone who chooses to support my work to ensure that my zombie universe doesn’t die a horrible death.
