Publisher's summary
A tourist is bitten by a rare monkey whilst on safari in Kenya. She is flown home, but later dies from the infection. Soon after, the hospital is on lockdown following an incident with a patient. Within hours, the city of Leeds is being attacked by hordes of people who appear drugged up and deranged. Days later, the north of England undergoes rioting and cannibalism for unknown reasons.
Meanwhile, David Sterling, the British prime minister, struggles to take a lead on the developing situation gripping his country. Zombies are supposed to be a thing of Hollywood, yet here they are in England, ravaging their way across the nation.
Annihilation shows the zombie apocalypse from the point of view of a typical incompetent prime minister. Pray he’s not in charge when the day of the inevitable apocalypse comes.

There are two types of people who think professionally about the future: Foresight strategists are civil futurists who think about geoengineering and smart cities and ways to evade Our Coming Doom; strategic forecasters are spook futurists, who think about geopolitical upheaval and drone warfare and ways to prepare clients for Our Coming Doom. The former are paid by nonprofits and charities, the latter by global security groups and corporate think tanks.

In 1919, Delano, Georgia, appoints its first chief of police. Honest and hardworking, the new chief is puzzled when young men start to disappear. But his investigation is ended by the fatal blast from a shotgun. Delano's second chief-of-police is no hero, yet he is also disturbed by what he sees in the missing-persons bulletins. In 1969, when Delano's third chief takes over, the unsolved disappearances still haunt the police files.
