A global pandemic brought the world to the edge of collapse for three years, millions of people died, and the survivors holding on to the faintess hope. Then the Philippine government introduced a mandatory vaccine that was meant to protect the public from the deadly virus. It was accepted without question, distributed without delay, and trusted as the solution the world had been waiting for.
It was the humanity's last chance.
But in the far northern part of the Philippines, there is a small, secluded town called Barrio Bellara. It once known as one of the safest places in the country, the town had remained untouched by the chaos beyond its borders. Quiet. Remote. Forgotten. Life was normal, until the high school bus filled with students never made it out of the tunnel. That's when the nightmare began. Its own people began to change-turning violent, unstable, and monstrously hungry-it was fast, fast as if they never saw it coming.
Danna Luz Manalo, a girl was caught in the heart of the growing horror. Her group forced to navigate the town that no longer feels human. As she fights to survive, and when they try to escape, they realize the most horrifying discovery of all. Barrio Bellara was never meant to protect them, it was meant to contain them.
