📝 Description: Necrotic Streets

Boris Bacic presents a harrowing narrative in Necrotic Streets, published by Tantor Audio in August 2025. The story follows a group of survivors attempting to escape a city consumed by an outbreak. As they move through the streets, they face challenges that force them to question their own morality and humanity. The plot reveals that the government has concealed critical information about the nature of the infection. This secrecy adds layers of danger to their journey, as the threat extends beyond the infected individuals themselves. The book examines the breakdown of social order under extreme pressure. Bacic explores how desperate circumstances strip away civilized behavior, leaving characters to make impossible choices. The narrative focuses on the psychological toll of survival rather than just physical danger. Readers will find a tight focus on the internal struggles of those trapped in the city. The story does not offer easy answers or clear heroes. Instead, it presents a grim look at human nature when stripped of its protections. This title suits readers who enjoy dark, character-driven horror fiction that questions ethical boundaries. It appeals to those interested in stories where the real monster is often found within the group. Fans of traditional zombie narratives might find this approach too introspective. The book is best for audiences seeking a tense, atmospheric experience that prioritizes moral ambiguity over action.
