A Cornwall lockdown story blending zombies, aliens, and a father's rescue mission.

He must contend with the undead, hostile criminals, and his own deteriorating physical state due to a zombie bite. The plot hinges on his determination to save his daughter from forces that exceed the immediate danger of infection. Lymon combines genres by merging supernatural horror with crime thriller dynamics. The setting serves as an epicentre for these converging disasters. The author explores how zombification mirrors ageing, adding depth to the gore.

📝 Description: A Killing Spree And Some Bloody Zombies

Jon Lymon presents a narrative set in Bluff Cove, Cornwall, where a zombie uprising intersects with an alien landing and a fabricated chemical spill. The story follows PC Jake Rodwell, who battles to survive while nursing a bite that threatens his humanity. As armed forces contain isolated pockets of infection, the criminal underworld exploits the chaos to eliminate their rival. Rodwell’s resolve shifts when he learns news regarding his wife and daughter, prompting a desperate mission to rescue his child from a threat more destructive than the encroaching horde. The text examines the parallels between zombification and the process of ageing. It delivers visceral scenes of flesh-ripping violence and decapitations for readers seeking intense horror content. This work suits audiences who enjoy supernatural fiction mixed with crime elements. It may not appeal to those preferring traditional zombie tales without criminal underworld subplots or philosophical undertones regarding mortality.
