Leisel and Evelyn lost everything. Husbands. Families. Friends. Lives that made sense. All they had left was each other, and a friendship that could withstand anything...even an apocalypse. Until one fateful night, the marginal safety they'd come to rely on comes to a vicious and brutal end, only to find themselves face-to-face with a much altered, much crueler life. Traveling across a broken and infection-ridden country, they find everything comes at a price-especially safety, the cost of which could very well strip them of the one thing they've tried so hard to cling to, their humanity. Yet along with all the trials they're forced to endure, there's also hope in the form of love. But in such a savage world, is there room for love? In a place of nightmares-made-reality, where the living should be feared far more than the dead, an unbreakable friendship and a love amongst all odds can mean the difference between life and death.
