Tomasso delivers a tense thriller that effectively blends zombie apocalypse tropes with a medical conspiracy narrative. The protagonist’s journey from dispatcher to desperate father provides a grounded emotional core amidst the chaos. The exploration of geopolitical barriers as survival tools is a distinctive element, contrasting US policy with Mexican economic realities in a way that feels fresh.
