When Daisy returns home as a zombie, her mother Martha refuses to give up on her. Pale skin? Too many late nights. Rotting flesh? A bath and some home remedies will help. To everyone else, Daisy is a monster. To Martha, she is simply her daughter.
As frightened neighbors demand Daisy be handed over, Martha stands against them with a meat cleaver and a mother’s fierce love. But when zombies surround the town, the daughter they wanted gone becomes their unlikely protector.
Then a doctor discovers that Daisy’s blood may hold the key to fighting the virus. Suddenly, everyone needs her—and Martha must protect her from becoming a resource to be claimed.
In a world forgetting what it means to be human, one mother refuses to forget who her daughter is.
