Samantha je profesionálka v tajnej agentúre, ktorá sa naučila skrývať svoje pocity aj minulosť. Je odhodlaná žiť v tme a nechať svoje srdce zamknuté, aby prežila. Keď však stretne Matthewa, veterána so zrazenou minulosťou, ktorá sa podobá tej jej, všetko sa zmení. Matthewa fascinuje jej sila, no zároveň ho desí, ako veľmi ho priťahuje. On sám sa snaží udržať si odstup, aj keď pod povrchom jeho emócií sa ukrýva viac, než je ochotný priznať.
Ich vzťah je tichý, neustále napätý a nikdy neúplný. Spoznávajú sa cez malé, každodenné momenty, no obaja si uvedomujú, že prílišná blízkosť môže byť nebezpečná. Ako sa zbližujú, začínajú sa objavovať temné odtiene ich minulosti, ktoré ich môžu zničiť.
V tomto príbehu lásky, ktorý je plný jemného napätia, musí Samantha čeliť nielen svojim démonom, ale aj tým, ktoré má Matthew. A možno práve on je tým, kto ju nakoniec naučí, že niekedy je potrebné riskovať všetko, aby si človek mohol nájsť to, po čom túži.
In the future, everyone who's bitten by a zombie turns into one... until Diane doesn't. Seven days later, she's facing consequences she never imagined.

Excerpt:
I looked up and stared. My reflection looked back at me in the mirror of the dark room. My eyes were literally glowing, there was no mistaking it. It was not a reflection of light, or any of the other excuses I had used or others had assumed. They were glowing a light sapphire blue color. It was not a bright glow, but it was definitely a glow.
Glowing eyes were not normal.
Okay, at this point I had to admit it, I was no longer normal.
What was I then? For that, I had no answer
