An influenza pandemic eliminates two billion lives from the planet. The U.S. President attempts to slow the death rate by introducing a vaccine into the food and water supply. The solution backfires of course and the dead begin to rise. Emily Gray and Seth Ripley are normal everyday people looking to survive the apocalypse. Their paths cross and a relationship ensues. The story focuses on this pair, chronicles how the relationship changes their lives and compares the new to the old. We also have a General Peters who remarkably can control the zombies to some degree via sound waves. An interesting twist and adds a little to the plot. It’s a story of people, love and survival. The sexual encounters may be a bit overdone, but does not completely distract. Not too bad; three.point.five for the effort.
