Synopsis

With its heartwarming blend of guts, romance, and humor, this road trip-ready sequel to Eat, Brains, Love is The Walking Dead meets John Hughes.

Jake and Amanda are in love, on the run--and undead. They've picked up a new psychic friend, ex-government-zombie-hunter Cass, and are making a break for Iowa, where a cure for the rapidly spreading zombie virus is rumored to be waiting. But in order to find it, they have to contend with an unlikely undead warlord, ghoul-infested cornfields, a psycho psychic out for blood, and their own super-awkward love triangle--all before Iowa goes up in flames.

Every reader with a pulse (or without one) will devour Jeff Hart's surprisingly romantic and laugh-out-loud funny take on friendship, love, and finding the meaning of (un)life in an eat-or-be-eaten world.

From the Back Cover:

The living dead, living it up.

Jake and Amanda have started to get the hang of their undead life of crime. They're totally in love, they have a trunk stocked with guinea pigs (aka zombie snacks), and they've picked up a new psychic friend who just may be their ticket into Iowa, where a cure for the zombie virus is rumored to be waiting.

Ex-government zombie hunter CASS can hardly believe she's aiding and abetting two undead fugitives. And she has to get over her stupid crush on Jake before Amanda literally bites her head off.

But once they cross the border into Iowa, things take a turn for the worse. Jake, Amanda, and Cass must contend with an unlikely zombie warlord, brain-dead ghouls, and their own awkward love triangle if they're going to make it out alive. But they never expected that in searching for the undead cure, they'd somehow find the meaning of life--well, unlife--in an eat-or-be-eaten world.
