Nothing
brings the family together like a zombie apocalypse …
Fifteen-year-old Jeremy Barnes would rather watch a zombie movie than
shoot a real one, but he has no choice if his family wants to survive
the end of the world. Their plan? Drive across the infected United
States to a cabin in the Colorado Rockies without a scratch, but
their trip takes a complicated detour in the middle of Nebraska when
they find Kaylynn, a girl who can handle a baseball bat better than
Jeremy can hold a .45 Berretta. And when they stumble into a
sanctuary, Jeremy soon learns that Kaylynn is stronger than she
looks—a deadly secret lies inside her.
After
the radio picks up a distress call from Kansas City about a possible
cure, Jeremy’s parents go with a team to investigate. They never
return. The only way to find their parents is for Jeremy and his
sister Jewel to rely on a dangerous girl who might just turn on them
at any moment.
"For
me, zombie stories are never about the killing. They're about the
survivors and how people deal with the apocalypse. To
this undead end, David Powers King has come up with
the most original spin on zombies I've ever read." - Michael
Offutt, author of Slipstream and Oculus
