So, some things didn't go as planned. So what? You can't expect everything to be perfect. At least the six survivors are still alive. Although, the zombies start to raise hell. The hordes start to get bigger and stronger. The hordes start getting harder to fight. However, the group of unlikely friends have ways of fighting them off. Do any of these ways work? For the most part? Most of them do. Some of their ideas don't work very well. But they do make it out alive.

The world as they knew it is gone.
When the deadly ZR-40 pathogen sweeps across the UK, turning the infected into relentless, flesh-hungry monsters, Effie, her brother Thomas, and their best friend are thrust into a nightmare they never saw coming.
With society collapsing around them, survival means more than just escaping the undead-it means facing impossible choices, uncovering terrifying truths, and holding onto their humanity as the world crumbles. But for Effie, the end of the world isn't just about fighting to stay alive-it's about growing up in a world where love and loss walk hand in hand. Torn between the boy who has always been by her side and the stranger who could change everything, she must navigate the blurred lines between survival, trust, and the undeniable pull of romance.
As they journey through the ruins of a country on fire, danger lurks around every corner. The infected aren't the only threat... and sometimes, the living are far worse.
In a world where the dead see you as their next meal-how do you see yourself?
Perfect for fans of The Last of Us, 28 Days Later, and Train to Busan, this gripping, heart-pounding apocalypse thriller blends intense action with emotional depth, love, and the fight to hold on to hope when everything else is lost.
Are you ready for the beginning of the end?
