The zombies have won.
Humans are on their last legs as a species, and a former tech worker has made his peace with the apocalypse. He's riding out humanity's final years alone, in his own personal settlement with everything he needs: food, warmth, security, solitude. But the life he's built comes to an abrupt end when a zombie horde overruns his house and garden and burns it all down.
His response? The zombies must die. All of them.
His quest for a zombie-free world will send him on a thousand-mile journey across a changed American West in search of knowledge and allies. But zombies aren't the only monsters in this new world, and living among people again means having a lot more to lose.
