Call a recruitment office today for more information. Pyrus Island has a reputation for being the deadliest, zombie-infested reality show on television, and Alex Monroe detests everything about it. The violence. The drama. The man-made zombies. Even more, she hates how much everyone else loves it. So, when something terrible happens, forcing her to sign up as a contestant for the show, she must decide: Will she learn to live with her grief or let the show turn her into one of the monsters she hated so much?
