"THERE ARE NO CONTINGENCY PLANS FOR THIS!"

St. Petersburg and Pinellas Park are two cities on a peninsula of Florida's west coast. With the Gulf of Mexico on one side and Tampa Bay on the other, evacuation choices are few, even when a proper warning is given. This is no place to be when a major disaster strikes and the power goes out. The general population receives no warning of the impending doom about to wash over them. The dead are coming back to life, filled with a single-minded urge to devour the living. While the power was on, some people follow the bigger picture on television, but the news media is little more than a chronicler of the disaster. Sadly, most people are better at becoming part of the problem than finding a way to solve it.

"The most important question becomes: Are there enough resilient survivors left to stem the rising dead tide of humanity?"

From the Author

Follow their lives as the world falls apart: Trish, an exotic dancer too tired to know the difference between one type of stiff and another; Morgan, a janitor at the County Morgue who can't catch a break; Bronte, a Gulf-War Vet home from the war and hunting his brother's killer; Mills, a firefighter desperate to save as many people as he can; Janicea, a woman consumed by hate and rage. All these disparate, desperate people and more, struggle to survive a zombie apocalypse in Stephen A North's 'Dead Tide!'
