Publisher Description
When the zombie apocalypse strikes without warning one dog will hold the fate of her pack in her paws. This is the story of Riley, an American bulldog. Follow along as she tries to keep her pack safe from a zombie apocalypse. Traveling with her are Ben-Ben the high strung Yorkie, her favorite two-legger Jessie, Jessie's younger brother Zachary, and Riley's arch enemy Patches the cat. They are a rag-tag group of survivors, who, when pushed to the limit, realize that they are all each other has.

"Loved it! Simply cant wait for the next instalments. I wish this would have been written as a full book though! As chilling and creepy as all his others. If your a fan of Mark Tufo this will not disappoint."

“The story wastes no time rolling up its gory sleeves and getting into the action—and Runnette ably transitions from humorous canine antics to savagery (e.g., when Riley rips the face off a family friend turned zombie), successfully blending horror and humor.”

“Runnette seems to somehow get inside Tufo’s brain and create all of the subtle qualities that make an audio performance really good.”
