If you are a fan of The Walking Dead, this is a must read. Lori Whitwam has created a zombie apocalypse that could easily happen. The story revolves around survivors of the apocalypse and while there are zombies, these are not the monsters that Ellen must face. Zombies are easy to spot as the enemy. But when someone she have known must fight for his own survival, Ellen discovers that sometimes you don't know who a person really is. Kidnapped, raped and forced to 'work' for her keep, Ellen manages to survive the unspeakable. But it is when she is rescued that her story really begins, as she learns to trust again and to see others for who they truely are.This book was a fast read and one I couldn't put down. I was rooting for Ellen throughout. Every twist and turn brought a new element to the story and while I could see where some of them were leading, I couldn't in others. The ending left me gasping. It wasn't what I wanted to happen, but in a zombie apacolypse you can't choose who lives and who dies. You just hope when it happens, you handle yourself as well as Ellen did.5 Stars! I only wish I could give more.
