The world as humans hav known it no longer exists. Flesh eating zombies are in control; once bitten a person becomes deathly ill immediately but twenty-four hours later is reanimated. In Florida, Courtney Calvin’s mother has been bitten; her spouse will not leave her, but the National Guard arrives to take them to safety. Only Courtney goes. The group is attacked, with everyone left dead except her, as a soldier rescues her and brings her to Camp Rigero near Carson City.

While at the post, a Black Beret teaches Courtney how to survive and supplies her with equipment to fight the creatures. When the camp is overrun, Courtney is the only survivor. She follows the signs that normals have written directing her to the walled in city of East Pointe along with six Black Berets. When Dane, a scientist, arrives after working on the cure for five years, he announces he has succeeded in finding the cure. He gets the Berets to accompany him to a ship where he can obtain the cure to save the people of the city. However, Dane is not quite what he seems to be, placing Courtney back in danger.

Zombie lovers will want to read Twilight of the Dead, a tale somewhat similar to the Romero mythos but containing a few surprises from the Atkins diet. The protagonist keeps to herself until she is needed, for instance to help get the cure. At those moments she does not hesitate, which explains her survival when everyone else in her circle seems to get converted. Travis Adkins provides a refreshing spin to the Zombie movement.
