THE PREMISE
When a world-wide virus brings the dead to life suspiciously close to the end of the Mayan calendar, a computer-scientist keeps a video diary as she works for and safely lives within the walls of a company trying to develop a vaccine, and as she waits for her nineteen-year-old sister to make a dangerous journey from San Antonio, Texas to be with her in New Mexico.
SYNOPSIS
With December 21, 2012, approaching, the end of the Maya calendar, a world-changing virus that turns people into mindless zombies springs up in Chiapas, Mexico and starts to spread across the world. Luckily, 26-year-old Hannah Winter works as the head of information technology at Biogenetics & Disease Control, a medical research company, deep beneath the city of Dulce, New Mexico, and focal point for an antidote to the virus. Not so lucky is her nineteen-year-old sister Jenna, who is far away in San Antonio, Texas and must make a perilous journey navigating around flesh eating zombies traveling to New Mexico to reunite with her sister Hannah.
Awards bestowed on Never-DEAD include a Finalist in Books for Teenagers in the 2021 Wishing Shelf Book Awards and Third Place General Fiction in the 2020 TCK Publishing Reader’s Choice Awards.
HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE PURPLE SHELF CLUB EVALUATION/EDIT REPORT
“It’s fascinating and I wanted to keep reading … there were moments in her story where the zombies had “human-like” moments. It was a fresh perspective and made me wonder if the zombies were truly zombies, or if they still had something human in them. The ending was very satisfying … It felt like you could finally take a sigh of relief even though you knew the world would still be recuperating after the vaccine was released.”
Purple Shelf Club review by Alexis Miller
