It has been 28 years, 14 weeks and 9 days since a virus turned more than half of the world's human population into zombies. More than 95 percent of the population died within 6 months of the initial infection. Those who survived holed up wherever they could find safety.
Pilar's parents found safety in the Cube, a building that was originally built as a prison for violent criminals. Her mother always told her the sacrifices they made to live in the Cube were worth it because they were safe. Pilar never questioned her safety until the day her parents disappeared without a trace from inside their apartment.
Thrust unexpectedly into a world where no one can be trusted, Pilar has to learn to think on her feet as she's faced with friends who have turned into enemies, enemies who have turned into friends, prophecies that may or may not be true and the ever present threat of being eaten by zombies.
Torn between survival and a fate far worse than death, the actions Pilar takes will determine the fate of everyone she loves.
