YA
Fiona wakes, missing four years of memory, to a dystopia in which a rampant virus turns humans feral and flesh-eating, while desperation turns the survivors equally brutal. Propelled by Fiona's quest for safe haven, the plot bounces between survival drama and exposition-heavy flashbacks. Despite overwrought villains and a by-the-book romance, the details of how this future evolved are fresh.
