Summary
An AU that takes place in 2038, after an unknown biological contaminant outbreak, zombie virus mutagen has infected the U.S. for the last eighteen years.
It spread too quickly and too far to be contained. Aside from the pockets that struggle to keep some semblance of order, civilization and humanity balance on the verge of collapse. Roaming bandits and marauders on top of the infected and mutated attack anyone not protected, so traveling alone is inadvisable at best.
But that doesn't stop her.
In this new terrifying world, Grace Ashcroft, now thirty eight, is strong, but still struggles in so many ways. At the moment she makes her way through a rainstorm along an isolated Midwestern rural forested area. She thanks the fates when she finds herself coming upon a large wrought iron gate in the middle of nowhere, closed off, chained shut, looking abandoned and like the perfect place to get out of the rain.
Maybe stay.
However, this apparent safe haven is not as abandoned as she thinks, or as safe.
