Frenzied - A Suspense Thriller Kindle Edition

Live . . . work . . . play . . . die


South Haven is the premier mixed-used community in metro Atlanta, a vibrant place where old-fashioned country living gets a modern update. There’s the town square where residents watch family movies on the lawn on warm summer nights. The corner market stocked with organic foods. The bakery with fresh coffee and Wi-Fi. The stately homes on shaded, gently winding streets. The water park where children splash, laugh, and run . . .


There’s also something deadly lurking.


The first incident is dismissed as an aberration: a college student goes berserk and hacks his family to chunks with a machete. But a day later, a young woman riding her bicycle is chased through the streets by her own neighbors. Then a teenager takes a deadly joyride, using his pick-up truck to mow down everyone in sight. As the incidents pile up, the only thing they share is that each person launched into an inexplicable, uncontrollable frenzy.


Mark Deacon, an ex-cop and chief of South Haven’s private security force, has never seen anything like it. And it’s about to get a whole lot worse.


Within twenty-four hours, South Haven is declared a quarantine zone, with every entrance barricaded and military snipers positioned outside the perimeter with orders to shoot on sight. Fearful residents huddle inside, uncertain whom to trust, anxiously watching one another for clues of where the terror might strike next.


Together with Dr. Hannah Bailey, a brilliant CDC scientist dispatched to investigate the threat, Deacon teams up with a motley crew of neighbors, and they hatch a desperate plan to find out answers--and stay alive.


But the spreading menace might not have arrived by accident . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars A pleasantly unexpected twist on the “zombie” genre!
Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2022

I just finished reading Brandon Massey’s “FRENZIED”, and I must say, Massey was in great form with this one! The story was intriguing, as was the premise. It is a pleasantly unexpected twist on the “zombie” genre!

The main characters and supporting cast were well fleshed out and the descriptions of the environment were also vivid and puts the reader right in the middle of it. There are of course twists and turns, the unexpected and a few surprises that made the story anything but predictable.

One thing the author did that I really liked was to describe the internal dialog of someone who was becoming “frenzied” – that is an aspect of zombies that I have wondered about and been wanting someone to explore for a long time. The way he did it was satisfying, though I will admit I wish it had stretched out a tiny bit more, to really get deep down into the character’s thoughts as he or she (as not to spoil anything), made the transition.

The book began as a good read and by the beginning of the final act – for me at least – it graduated to “can’t put it down” status, and I mean that literally!

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of zombie action, or just action in general with a healthy dose of mystery and fright thrown in!

This book deserves a sequel, I hope Massey decides to do one and continues the saga.

The author keeps you engaged in this well-written, well-executed, page-turning, gripping plot, highlighting a multitude of characters with unconventional conduct, great dialogue, and stunning descriptive settings. The location is South Haven, Georgia, an upscale business district and a friendly residential area with its racially/ethnically diverse residents. The grass always looks greener until you turn it over, exposing secrets and lies, infidelity, betrayal, and death. Mark Deacon, a former cop, is head of security in South Haven and is dealing with his own personal and professional issues but may find the answers to what is occurring in the community. Emily Taylor, a medical student, has a secret but begins to witness pandemonium at a community medical center. When Dr. Hannah Bailey of the CDC appears, the narrative becomes even more riveting, revealing questionable activities of some vile characters, building up to an ending you will never see coming.

I enjoyed the story very much. I would have given the book 4 stars, but the editing sucked, big time.
Good character development and the plot was very good.
Just edit, please. Misspellings, poor sentence/paragraph construction. Good editing would have gotten this book another star. Too bad.

Once again Brandon comes through with a creative, page turning thriller. I loved the characters, really liked the spin used for the protagonist. I was left wondering based on the build up of events how things progressed at the very end but still enjoyed the book. Cannot wait until one of these books (if not this one) will be turned into a film. Thanks Brandon for keeping me entertained, now on to the next.

Awesome read! Brandon Massey is one of my favorites.... he writes a great story with such detail. His characters are always multi dimensional. This story reminded me a little of the show the walking dead but the premise was very different. The only thing I would change about the book is to tie up some more lose ends.. like were there any survivors? And I wondered why Jim never checked on his wife, did she even make it? And in this day and age, how could they even attempt a fake news story when so many residents had video already out there? I guess the book was so good, I just wanted more! Great job.. looking forward to your next book!
