Jameson is a teenager in a world where most people are lucky to live past 30 years. His village is assaulted nightly by The Turned, walking dead that are infectious right down to their fingernails. Everyone lives in constant fear of being caught unprotected, and becoming Turned themselves. But when Jameson is infected, it doesn’t kill him- instead of killing him, the infection forms some sort of symbiosis with him, and for the first time in his life, he doesn’t fear the setting sun. With his freedom, he finds that he is not the only one who is immune. He also finds that there are much greater things to fear, and not all of them hide from the sun.

What happens when humanity's hope rests on the shoulder of a teenager? Caleb didn't come out of the zombie uprising unscathed. He's been scarred-both mentally and physically. The rest of humanity is trying to rebuild, to make the world normal again. Caleb is trying to return to a normal life also, but after all he's seen, after the loss of his family and friends, the transition is difficult. The darkness that led him down a path of self-doubt and self-harm has never left his mind. Things only become worse when he discovers he's immune to whatever makes a zombie a zombie. Fighting zombies was predictable. He knew what to expect. Fighting humans is volatile. They are malicious and treacherous. They won't stop to get what they want, and Caleb has to figure out exactly what that is. *Trigger warning: Attempted suicide
