Return to the world of Brian Kittrell's living dead saga. This time, we take a look at the missile attacks from the perspective of US Army Captain Andrew McKenzie who was recently placed in charge of a secret military research facility in texas, code-named North Star. This book mixes the experiences of Andy with an interweaving of soldiers on the front lines for a truly omniscient view of the apocalypse - from the first sighting of Mumbatu's missiles to the release of the virus on the United States and its allies.
