The drug-users look and act like frenzied infected zombies from movies. Over five days, a cast of Millennials and war vet GenXers experience their world of normalcy infiltrated. For former Ranger Staff Sergeant Peter Sullivan, it’s a good thing. War is what he does best. But for doctoral candidate Phebe Marcelino, it’s a descent into a hell of kill or be killed. Phebe and two other civilians must band together with a group of war vets led by Peter to battle their way out before death or contagion overtakes them.
