The story starts 2 weeks after the initial outbreak where we are introduced to 3 members of a small group of survivors, Matt, Cole & Alex, & drops you straight into the action of a supply run gone bad. For here the story goes from strength to strength including a chance encounter with a group of thugs moving a group of prisoner's which includes one person that will have a significant affect on them & the rest of the group as a whole.
A cracking story with a good strong cast of characters, some which unfortunately don't make it to the end of the book, & if this is the first of a trilogy, then I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.
