Book one of the trilogy
Chaz Singleton is the product of a secret military experiment gone horribly wrong. He escapes his captors to go on the run, a lone zombie against a hostile humanity.
Chaz holds the fate of the world in his hands, whether he likes it or not. He is dead. He is angry. He is contagious.
And he is hungry.
