Extended description

There was a time, after the first zombie outbreak was contained, that America could stand back and catch its breath. We could look at how bad things really were, and take stock of all that we had lost.

It was a time of shock, of grief, and of fierce political reprisals.

Enter Samantha Calloway, reporter intent on telling the story of the Forgotten.

One night she sneaks through the Coast Guard blockade and lands on a deserted beach in South Texas. Her mission--spend three weeks wandering the wastes, finding out how those left behind live their lives and whether or not escape is possible. Get in and get out. It's all supposed to be very easy.

That is, until she meets Jessica...
