Excerpt
Grace looked at Jim’s white face and his damaged neck. He had already bled out. No one could survive that kind of wound. Yet Jim walked toward Inez. Grace felt her blood run cold.

“Run!” she yelled. “Get out of the room!”

Inez turned and ran. Grace met her at the door. Bill seemed frozen in place.

Zombies at its best

This looks to be the beginning of a great zombie tale. The characters act to avoid a zombie outbreak from becoming the end civilization.
