Ever since the zombie virus hit Emma's irritatingly boring Midwestern hometown, she's been on the run with her old best friend-turned-boyfriend Finn. On their journey, they've witnessed some pretty disgusting deaths, narrowly escaped life-threatening escapades that sometimes included one of their own pulling a gun on them numerous times, and redefined the definition of what makes up a family (as it turns out, soldiers and geeks can be pretty decent). They've even learned the disturbing truth behind the mysterious virus. But after Emma was bit by one of the infected trying to save her neighbor boy, she was told she would not have long to live. In the thrilling sequel to The Day Zombies Ruined My Perfectly Boring Life, Finn will help to tell the story as Emma and the gang are faced with the most crucial life-changing decisions yet. They'll come across an unfortunate group of rednecks, discover the truth of what happened to Finn's federal agent mother, and finally see a chance at truly being safe without having to run anymore. But in the middle of it all, Emma and Finn's relationship will soar to completely uncomfortable levels when Finn takes things one step too far. And between being injected with an unknown liquid, taking on a completely unexpected (and really agitating alliance), and being left for dead by those she loves most, Emma will realize that zombies are the least of her worries.
