Prison Break

In the Dead: Volume 2

by Jesse Petersen

When the Zombie Apocalypse began in Seattle and spread within days to almost the entire western half the country, the survivors had to figure out how to deal with the plague and live one day at a time. These are their stories.

If you liked Jesse Petersen's zombie comedies Married With Zombies, Flip This Zombie, and Eat Slay Love, these stories are set in the same world, but from the perspective of other survivors. The first, Prison Break, was released on Petersen's blog on Aug 15, 2012. A new short story will be released on the 15th of each month. Together, these short stories comprise In The Dead: Volume 2.

About the author

A Facebook application once told Jesse Petersen that she'd only survive a day in a zombie outbreak, but she doesn't believe that. For one, she's a good shot and two, she has an aversion to bodily fluids, so she'd never go digging around in zombie goo. Until the zombie apocalypse, she lives in the Tucson with her husband and two cats and writes snarky urban fantasy about monsters and zombies.

Brett Walters is serving a life sentence, and rightfully so. Prison isn't anyone's idea of a good time, but he's become unhappily accustomed to its routine. Until, one day, something happens that changes the routine. The guards normally squelch any riot in minutes, but word on the cell block is the guards have flown the coop. When the lights go out and the cell doors are opened, what will the prisoners find?

As always, Petersen delivers a fast, fun read that immediately sucks the reader into the world she's created. Looking forward to future installments of In the Dead: Volume 2.

An interesting take of an inmates view of life when reality is warped by the zombie apocolyse.
