Chapter Two

Between the pages of Karl Hood's latest book is death. Not just for the characters inside but for almost all of those who read it as well. In a surprise promo, he gave away thousands of copies to his readers. It was the sequel to his best seller, which ironically, was a zombie novel. He also gave them much more than promised. Because even though Karl Hood's fans died during or after reading his books, their victims came back. And they weren't posting reviews. When the outbreak begins, violence hits the quiet suburb of Katy just as fast as in Houston and other larger cities. Jenny Choate has to fight to stay alive, doing whatever necessary. Finally safe in her apartment, yet worried about her mother and brother, she plans to wait it out. Events unfold, making that impossible. Once she steps foot outside again, the danger increases tenfold.
