On one fateful night, humankind found itself battling hordes of the living dead. From diners to highways to farmhouses, the dead assaulted the living and consumed their flesh along with their lives. Among them were Duane, a reluctant hero, trapped with strangers in a diner; Karl, the antagonistic husband and father fighting for control; and young lovers Keith and Judy, fleeing through the dark woods with the dead close behind them. And caught in the middle of the madness was Sheriff Kosana, a simple, small-town lawman intent on controlling the situation himself. Though their fates have already been written by the hands of time, their struggle for survival is one of agonizing suspense as they battle to escape the outstretched arms of the undead pursuing them. Experience the terror in Just Before Night, a zombie anthology of gut-munching, bone-snapping stories that chart the origins of the living dead. For when night falls, the dead will walk, and no one will be safe.
