A terrible disease spreads through Europe. Millions of people die within a few days - the healthy try to flee. But to contain the deadly virus, countries around Europe close their borders. The Inna Zone is created. A strictly guarded military exclusion zone encircles the continent and traps the few survivors.

A competition for the resources of this obliterated area begins, culminating in the Third World War. In the turmoil of this catastrophe, Marvin Lang, a simple boy from Austria, tries to survive somehow - and is suddenly hunted by British intelligence and the Russian military, until he is left with only one way out.

A novel that is so much more than a thriller. An anti-hero, who's so much more than a victim. And a story that is so much more than that.

The 2017 novel debut from science journalist Markus Feigl. THE INNA ZONE is a dystopian science thriller. It weaves together the stories of a terrified student, high-ranking military officers and ordinary soldiers, who must endure a global catastrophe. Suspenseful, intelligent, brutal and gritty.
