June's dying, Red's panicked, and Porter's infected. Things aren't looking good for the survivors as the infection that's ravaged the states mutates into something new, and more dangerous. The helpers are beginning to organize, and a new threat is exposed. Military scientists are prepared to experiment with what's called 'The Red Solution', and it promises to be even more devastating that the original virus.
Before the day's over, Red and Porter will discover whether or not they have a chance at reaching the gulf coast where their family is hopefully still alive. And even if they make it there, what hope do they have of actually surviving what's to come?
I have enjoyed this series and the only bad thing is I hate when I reach the end of each section! Cannot wait till day 6. Great story line and characters.
This might be my favorite so far and it has me really excited about the last two novels in the series. I loved every minute. It took the story in a direction I didn't expect and sets up some really interesting threads that will likely play a major role in the eventual finale. I'm fully on board with Red and June's relationship, I'm cheering for them to fight to the end together, but I worry bittersweet tragedy may befall them in some way, shape, or form by the time they reach the finish line.
