There are no zombies in America. Rest assured, President Trump would tell us if there was. With most the globe being swarmed with the living dead, Americans watch with fascination, glued to the 24-hour news cycle and the social media circus to hear all the latest. As things spiral towards chaos with zombie cults rising, armed militias patrolling the streets, and a police state set up to keep peace, there is no escape. You don't need zombies with friends like these. Robert Holt presents us with a fun political satire/horror hybrid that will keep you flipping the pages to see the atrocities, blasphemies, and phantasmagorical terrors pile up.
