    About this ebook

    It’s been a year since the initial outbreak of the zombie apocalypse, and for the survivors in the suburbs of Philadelphia, everything is about to change. When a mysterious man shows up at the gate of their safe zone, proclaiming to have “a product of vital interest and importance”, more than a few residents wanted answers, including Connor. Venturing to the nearby Chemcorp facility, survivors throughout the region gather and are introduced to a chemist named Abe Morrow . . . and to a product that would change everything.

      ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

      First and foremost I want to thank my best friend on this planet, Doug Ward, without whom I would likely have never written this book. If not for his constant pushing for me to pen my ideas, I’d likely still be sitting with just a few notes in a leather journal. I’d also like to thank Michael Fallen, Luke Whiteman, Maliki Zbikowski and Cassie Finnegan, the great students of Springdale High School who graciously posed for the cover of this novelette. Great job!

      Finally, I’d like to thank my many friends and family for the wonderful support they gave me through the months of writing. Your words of encouragement did not fall on deaf ears. Last, but certainly not least, thanks to my wife Chris for supporting me through this adventure and listening to
