    Complete, First published Nov 07, 2014
    When a deadly disease ravages the town of Holmsley, Frankie and her friends find themselves trapped inside a military-blockaded quarantine zone.
        
                                                                              *****
        
        A story that was first published in 2014 and feels more relevant than ever.
        
        Fifteen-year-old Frankie and her friends must find their way out of quarantine if they want to survive. As the body count rises, Frankie realizes that this is no ordinary quarantine and no one is coming to help. Once infected, the sick become crazed and violent, while fear turns other survivors to savages. And who or what are the mysterious figures Frankie keeps seeing around town? It seems she'll have to unravel the dark truth behind it all if she wants to get out alive...
        
        Content and/or trigger warning: This story describes disease outbreaks and contains scenes of violence, which may be triggering for some readers.
