An excerpt from The Plague: Dead Solstice: In the near future, the world has died. With no warning, technology and communication shut down and the dead began to rise. They feed on their victims, pulling more to their ranks as they spread at an impossible rate. But hope survives, as a small band of survivors work together to escape from Southern California in hopes of finding sanctuary from a zombie- infested world. Their goal is to find some remnants of civilization but the farther they venture, the more they become aware that the world as they know it has been forever broken. What they don’t realize is, there are things hiding in the shadows, things that are even far worse than the living dead.
