It' s six weeks after the events in the first book, Undead,
and Bobby wakes up in a hospital with no memory of how she
got there. Smitty's now missing and Bobby must find him with
the help of the old gang plus a newcomer. Now it looks like
there's another enemy by way of the pharmaceutical group
Bobby suspects is behind the infection. Bobby will need to
get them out of the hospital, find Smitty, and find her mom.
There's more gore in this sequel to 2012's Undead, and the
story starts where the first one left off. Author Kirsty
McKay drops you right into the action and the story keeps up
its fast pace through the end.
Bobby is still the strong and
capable leader assisted by her motley group of friends. The
group's diversity is key to making this formula work, and it
also allows for the dark comedy element. I enjoyed the idea
of the kids solving a mystery with the pharmaceutical
conspiracy and a missing Smitty and Bobby's mom. These
served to pull the story along at a steady and quick pace.
There's more information about the infection itself and the
origins of it. I enjoyed continuing the tale and I will be
curious to see if there will be a follow up book.
Fifteen-year-old Roberta wakes up in a hospital after the
incident which turned many of her classmates into zombies,
only to be told that her mother is dead and all of Scotland
has been quarantined--but something suspicious is going on
and it is up to Bobbie to figure out what it is.
