The government has finally established full control and eliminated any infections threatening the inhabitants of Earth. The new regime appears in no way despotic - people never get sick; they are happy and enjoy a life of perpetual health. Liely Romat, a talented music teacher, is no different from the rest. Her life mirrors the routine of any other citizen - until one day, she wakes up with a sneeze, red eyes and a fever. What is happening? Are these symptoms of a disease? Liely must not only find a way to cure herself but also fight for her survival, as she has officially become a threat to society. Now, she must confront the darker side of the system that claims to uphold "peace in the whole world."

Red Zoned follows the story of a young lesbian trying to survive in the homophobic, post-apocalyptic America after the U.S. attempts to create a super solider and, in turn, creates the start of a Zombie apocalypse. When convicted for murder, Charlie is given a choice: public execution or the Red Zone. Despite the Red Zone being known for providing a slow and painful death, she opts for the chance to fight for her life instead of facing public execution and it becomes clear quickly that her only chance of survival rests in the hands of others. However, when she develops relationships with the others in her new home, she learns there's more to be afraid of than the flesh eating monsters outside. Trigger Warnings: Themes of sexual assault and suicide.

[Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner] The Redding takes you if it knows your name. That's the rule that's kept Meg alive --- or awake, rather --- since the night the world went to hell. Nobody knows where the red stuff came from, but it acts like water, it's in the water, and it falls as rain every night. The people it captures drop like puppets with their strings cut. They're asleep, not dead, and they can be reawoken. But then they just try to kill you. Meg and the other survivors she's befriended think they've found a stable equilibrium, six weeks after the catastrophe began. In an empty town, there's not much to do except innovate new survival methods. Meg's crush is the one to discover that Morse Code, like writing, is a safe means of communication. That's all fine and good until the nightly rain begins. Raindrops, as it turns out, can make dots and dashes, too. The Redding can talk. And it's telling her to run. ❖❖❖ Complete. Wattys 2023 Winner.

When Aria meets Nima, the latest in a long line of victims lured to Eden by the promise of safety, a spark rekindles her cold heart. Aria can't sit idly by while Nima becomes her parents' next prey.
