The world ended. His wife betrayed him. Now he’s stuck on a tropical island... with twelve beautiful women—and a deadly secret beneath the sand.

Jude thought escaping the zombie apocalypse on a cruise ship was salvation.
He was wrong.

After a cruel twist of fate leaves him stranded and betrayed, he wakes up on an island that seems like paradise—but the truth is far more dangerous.

No way out.
And the undead? They're not the only threat hunting him.
