The citizens of San Antonio, Texas are threatened with extermination by a terrifying outbreak of the flu. Quarantined by the military to contain the virus, the city is in a desperate struggle to survive. Inside the quarantine walls, Detective Lily Harris is working burial statistics duty at the Scar, San Antonio's mass graveyard, when she finds a murder victim hidden amongst the plague dead. But Lily's investigation into the young woman's death soon takes a frightening turn as yet another strain of the deadly flu virus surfaces, and now Lily finds herself caught up in a conspiracy orchestrated by a corrupt local government intent on hiding the news from the world and fighting a population threatening to boil over into revolt. As the city erupts in violence, Lily is forced to do the unthinkable. With the clock ticking toward annihilation, Lily must lead her family through the quarantine walls and escape with news that just might save us all.

I‘ve read 5 books and 2 short stories so far during this quarantine all on my trusty tablet, which in less than 9 weeks is pretty good for me 🤷‍♀️grateful for online library resources these days, though i know we miss going in to an actual library. Also, I have NOT been doing my hair and make up every day, don‘t let this pic fool you 😜 sometimes you gotta do something to make you feel better, though 😭 #week9

Mishu94 Looking good! 😍💛 4y

We stopped and visited for a few minutes from a “safe distance”. My mom is missing everyone so much which is a little funny because she didn‘t miss us much when we could see her and is protective of her retirement schedule 🙄

JenReadsAlot That made me smile! 4y
peaKnit @JenReadsAlot I‘m so glad! Jordyn is on the bike too. My mom is carrying on missing everyone and I‘m like, what?! But I‘d never say it😊 4y

Quarantine got me down. My dad is pretty sick and it‘s kind of scary. Really hating being stuck in the house. Plague was not the dystopian fantasy I had always hoped for🙄 I would have preferred to have been a chosen one or even zombies. Ugh where‘s the rabbit hole I‘ve been waiting for my whole life! #wheresmyrabbithole #quarantinegotmedown #latefornomoredates

wordslinger42 I'm so sorry to hear about your dad 💜 I'll be praying he recovers soon!! I'm so thankful for the Litsy community in all this mess! (Also, I love your Alice cups, especially the one on the right!!) 4y
TrishB Hope he‘s on the mend soon ❤️ 4y

ReadingRover Thanks @wordslinger42 @TrishB @Kalalalatja @SW-T @wanderinglynn @LibrarianRyan @jas16 I appreciate it. He‘s in the hospital with COVID19 and bilateral pneumonia. He has COPD so that complicates things. Right now he‘s just on oxygen. Hopefully he won‘t need to be put on a ventilator. Thanks again. I just kinda needed to vent a little. 4y
ReadingRover @wordslinger42 @wanderinglynn I got both of those cups from different swaps from awesome littens!!! The one with the straw even came with reusable ice cubes! ☕️🐇🌹🐢⏱🎩🧁🍄 🐛 4y

ReadingRover @tracey38 thanks. I appreciate it. 4y
BookBabe Thinking of you @ReadingRover … hope you‘re doing well. I‘m sorry your dad got sick…I‘m recovering from covid + pneumonia myself right now and it‘s not fun, can‘t even imagine with more health complications like COPD. 🙏🏻 2y
