Valerie is vulnerable but tough. With her handgun, courage, and wits, she survives the beginning of the zombie apocalypse during the mayhem in downtown Phoenix and escapes, only to join a motorcycle gang that she doesn't particularly trust. After a horde of zombies and a series of events, she decides, for a while, to vent on her own, until she joins another group of bikers that seems a bit more trustworthy.
Infected wildlife, difficult decisions, and teaming up with the right kind of people all become part of her journey until they reach a jail full of inmates who have been locked up and who beg them to release them.
Once again, they are faced with a dilemma that will require them to follow their instincts.
This is the first book in a series of six dystopian zombie books.
