Angel’s life has changed a lot in the past year. Zombified,
kidnapped, and flooded, she’s gone from addict-dropout-felon
to responsible-pardoned-graduate with barely any chance to
process it all. She’s not a loser anymore, has a steady job
at the morgue, and is even an insider in the “Zombie Mafia”
run by Pietro Ivanov, her boyfriend’s uncle. Needless to
say, she’s more than ready for life to be a little boring.
But Angel doesn’t get to kick back and relax for long. It’s
bad enough when an experimental procedure meant to stabilize
her “zombie kid” Philip goes awry and leaves him imprinted
on Angel, but the mysterious disappearance of Pietro, his
head of security, Brian Archer, and the director of the lab,
Dr. Nikas, causes a stir Angel can’t ignore. Oh, and her
nemesis, Dr. Kristi Charish, managed to escape shortly
before the others went missing. Angel is certain that Kristi
and the Saberton Corporation are behind the disappearances,
but there’s also no denying they had inside help—and that
Brian Archer is the obvious suspect. Meanwhile, Philip’s
imprint behavior goes from annoying to disruptive, and Angel
needs the missing Dr. Nikas’s help to sort it out.
With the Zombie Mafia in lockdown mode, and with no clue who
she can trust, Angel strikes out with Philip and two trusted
friends to track down the missing men. In a search that
takes them from a seedy redneck bar in the backwoods of
south Louisiana to a high society cocktail party halfway
across the country, Angel and her gang claw their way
through corporate intrigue, zombie drugs, and undead
trafficking.
Soon Angel is embroiled in kidnapping plots and hostage
negotiations, except this time she’s the one calling the
felonious shots. Add to that some breaking and entering,
criminal damage, and a wee bit of terrorism, and Angel’s up
to her undead ears in the kind of trouble she excels at.
With Philip causing more and more trouble, and double-agents
on both sides, it’s zombie against zombie as Angel rallies
her debilitated crew to face down the Saberton forces. With
her white trash attitude as her best weapon, Angel rescues
the men, exposes the traitor, and finds out what she’s truly
capable of.
