Before there was Chalice and Colton, there was a secret government facility that housed a monster. When the meteors strike, hell is unleashed and life has changed for the living and the dead.

Attempts to divert a giant meteor from striking the Earth fail. Instead, the meteor was broken and showered the earth with many. One of which strikes a government test facility unleasing a plague like non the world has ever seen. Chalice Hart watches her mother die and then flees their home with her brother and sister. They team up with another group of survivors and head west in search of a safe zone. The horrors they encounter were only imagined in Chalice's nightmares. The one redeeming factor is the handsome Colton Morgan. A young man who quickly becomes much more than a friend.

Who is the woman following Chalice and her group? The Survivors of a zombie apocalypse are searching for a safe zone. A place where they can start a new life, and thrive. While they manage to find the supplies they need, Chalice and Colton are sure their good luck can't last, especially when others try to take what belongs to them and hordes of zombies wait down every road. Can they find their sanctuary before they all turn into one of the non-breathers?

Chalice's and Colton's group of survivors is growing, but their stock of supplies aren't. When they find a place to settle for a while, it seems other survivors want what they have and send the largest horde of undead their way Chalice has seen yet, not to mention Colton brings a woman back from the dead. The road to a safe place is long and Chalice begins to fear they'll never find a place safe from the dead who now rule the world. Will they find their haven? Will they ever be able to forge a new "normal" life?
