Big Bill: an older African American man who can’t read or write 

Johnny: a truck-stop waitress who loves fighting the undead 

Juan: a handsome Hispanic man with a big heart 

These are the new heroes left to fight for the world. Like an event horizon, it’s too late to stop the infection that has turned most of the world’s population into flesh-eating zombies, but those who have survived have a lot to accomplish. 

The team, trained by a former marine, emerges from the rubble to rescue others and find the city has become a horrific nightmare, and the zombies and looters have left nasty surprises. As the zombies mass in hordes, the team rushes to rescue survivors trapped in an old school, but the way to safety is cut off, and the team has to get creative if they plan to survive. 

In Arkansas, the hope for a better future rests with a boy named Zane, but both the shambling dead and a cruel gang are intent to stop him from reaching Texas. Not far away, Pascal choreographs dancing skeletons and leads an army of sadists. Along the way, people are taking sides, and the showdown is destined to involve George’s group of survivors. Beliefs will be tested as those who have survived the Red virus and zombie attacks realize that they are pawns in a deadly war to inherit the world.
