Scientists are the new rock stars. The infection has been contained for nearly three months, and the world is celebrating. But humans are still dying. Rebekah Taylor has seen it firsthand. Her husband was killed right in front of her by the very creatures that humans were told they no longer had to fear.

Rebekah is determined to find out who is responsible for the death of her husband and the obvious cover-up. Fueled with revenge, she begins to find answers that lead to one frightening conclusion. The apocalypse might be over, but the battles are just beginning.

Twisted!

Not at all what I was expecting, not even close. In a book that's about zombie I honestly expected to see more of them. 

That heart racing fear about not knowing where they're going to come from is what we all love, and though this book had other fantastic areas, I still found myself wanting more. 

Rebekah is a badass. 

Things in your life change you, living through the zombie apocalypse is one that will, but watching your husband being taken from you and eaten.....well that's a whole different ball game.  After seeing that & suddenly some mysterious vans come rolling up to take the zombies back from where they came from, Rebekah knows something major is up! As the story goes on she learns there's a whole different world out there, one that is a danger and lurking right at the door step of her loved ones. Now she feels that she must do everything she can to stop it.

I really like how the book progressed, one of my favorite times was when she was first introduced to Preston. Mild-mannered bartender by night, kick-ass boss of a secret organization by the rest of his day. Rebekah and him had a lot of common bonds, loss, wanting answers, but it was great that they were able to actually form a connection with each other. Not that gushy-lovey type, but the kind where 2 people care & have an understanding.

By the end of this book I was dying to have answers! I got them, and well now I want another book! Maybe one where the zombies are running free....it's just a thought!

4/5

Excerpt

I gripped the console as I watched the twitches and spasms of the zombies’ movements closing in on us. They were everywhere…the grass, the sidewalk, the driveway. There was no mistaking the rotting, grey flesh that exposed the muscle and bone of the undead. They were something I’d run from countless times, but this time we had nowhere to run. The undead had us trapped. They would rip us to shreds in an instant.

“I think some of ‘em are new,” I said, turning my attention back to Gavin.

There were some clean-looking zombies staggering toward us, their flesh mostly intact. That made no sense. The outbreak had been contained for months. There should be no freshly infected roaming around. Everyone had been vaccinated. The only stragglers evading capture had been around awhile, so their bodies were beat up badly by the time they were caught. Not these.

“Let’s hope not,” he murmured, not bothering to look out the window to confirm nor deny my suspicions.

“We can’t run. They’d totally get us before we got away,” I said, hoping he’d correct me, tell me that we had a chance.

He didn’t.

He slammed his fist into the steering wheel and looked over at me. When the outbreak happened, we never looked back. We were always on the move, running from the disease that took our families and friends. That was the key to survival. Never stay in one place. Always stay on the move. Now we had nowhere to move. I glanced over at Gavin and saw the fear in his eyes. Even with everything we’d encountered, his eyes had never held this amount of terror.

“Babe, whatever happens…”

“Knock it off,” I said.

“We have nothing to fight them with, and a horde this size needs a distraction.”

“Don’t you dare,” I hissed, shaking my head. The fear was pulsing through me at an unstoppable rate. “We didn’t live through the outbreak to die now.”
