Elise lived a charmed life as a college student. She had friends and her life was blessed, but she is gripped by panic attacks that seize her in the dark of the night. She's plagued by nightmares and is generally unsettled in her own skin. Elise constantly feels under attack, that every breath could be her last.

Looking at her reflection, she can see the damage her constant fear puts her in. Heavy stance and tired eyes, and strange blueish hues of bruising along her body from tight grasps and nightly thrashing- or so she believes.

Elise is beginning to notice strange things about her reflection, the strange and foreign fear that resides deep in her gaze and how she's always breathless and frantic when she looks at herself. The disheveled appearance always clinging to her and those mysterious bruises. She isn't positive, but something strange is happening with her reflection. 

But who is the reflection and what happens when Elise goes to the mirror one morning and finds nothing looking back at her?

The Virus Within: The Unranked (Book 4)

50 parts Complete

Season 4 of The Virus Within Trinity is familiar with zombies, being one herself, but when strange zombies start appearing, she realizes that the world she knew might be changing yet again. When a dangerous set of scientific notes are discovered, Trinity and her friends don't realize anything is wrong until a frantic radio call comes in. Unaware of the notes, they race to the south and struggle to determine where the strange zombies came from. The zombies are unlike any ranks previously seen, and they aren't as predictable. Some have new tricks hidden up sleeves, forcing any Stronghold they encounter to quickly adapt to the new challenge or risk being overrun. Secrets never remain hidden, and zombie apocalypses never make life easy.
