The suburbs of Denver were no place to stay during a zombie outbreak, even worse the nuclear fallout was making the place downright uninhabitable. Max and his companions needed to get out of town fast, before they joined the ranks of the living dead or the just good old fashioned dead. The four adults had four kids to look after too, so they loaded up the minivan and headed east. Why east? It was true that would take them past the worst of the radioactive fallout, however the other ways out of town were even worse. To the east was Max’s old high school friend, Bill, who lived on a farm in Iowa. Tom, one of the survivors with the group, also had parents who lived in North Platte, which was a stop along the way. Maybe Iowa hadn’t been hit as hard or perhaps the roads would be clear once they got to Nebraska? Out in Iowa Bill was just living his normal life, there was something going on in other parts of the country, some sort of violence, but when wasn’t that the case? All too quickly his normal world came crashing down around him and he is forced to choose the least bad option out of many bad options in order to ensure the survival of his family.
