Dawn and the Dead

Dawn thought her shift at the farm store would be uneventful—just another night of stocking shelves and helping the occasional customer who wasn’t home with the nasty flu spreading through town. But when chaos erupts in the parking lot, and people start attacking each other like animals, it becomes clear this isn’t just any flu.

Trapped inside with a handful of terrified strangers, her boyfriend Travis, and Wyatt—the quiet, watchful regular who always seems to show up at the right time—Dawn must figure out how to survive. The radio promises safety at a government shelter, but getting there alive means working together.

Wyatt has been waiting for this moment. For months, he’s watched Dawn, learning her routines, tucking her in at night, protecting her without her ever knowing. Now the world is falling apart, and he finally has the chance to step in. Travis is reckless, incapable of keeping her safe. Wyatt is ready to do whatever it takes to protect Dawn, even if it means taking out the competition.

With danger closing in from all sides, Dawn must trust Wyatt to get her out alive. But as the horrors outside grow, so do the unsettling questions How far will Wyatt go to keep her safe? And why does she feel safer with him than anyone else?
