Kitch McCall is a nineteen-year-old Tourette's suffer who hadn't seen much of the outside world. When the pandemic devastated the US, he was thrust onto the streets of Charleston, SC to fend for himself. Armed with nothing more than his wits, Kitch battles not only the infected, but also the surviving town psychopath, Junior Watson who's convinced he's a Viking warrior. Unfortunately for Kitch and what remains of humanity, Junior Watson is off his medication. Junior has enslaved thirty teenagers who are more than eager to carry out his bloody, dirty work for him. Kitch and four survivors must not only face down millions of infected, but a determined Junior Watson whose Viking army is fanatically loyal. Together, the five teens find the courage to survive, learn to love as they experience deep, personal loss and reconnect with their humanity under brutal circumstances. Surviving clusters of humanity battled not only the infected but each other for shelter, food, clean water and a haven to call home. When you're nineteen in a dog eat dog environment, life and death are reduced to two simple terms—kill or be consumed!
