Tom gets hired by some residents of Mountainside to kill their loved ones with dignity, something Benny didn't know.

Benny didn't realize the whole truth about his brother’s work until he started to train with him. However, while his brother trains him beyond the fence, to become a zombie hunter as well, Benny learns pretty quickly that they aren’t the terrible monsters he always believed them to be.

Outside of this fence awaits them nothing other than the zombs which roam the Earth since the apocalypse, driven by nothing more than their insatiable hunger for human flesh and blood. 14 years have passed since Benny and his older brother Tom found refuge in Mountainside, a village which is protected by a chain link fence from the outside world. These are the second and the third installment, and a novella of the Benny Imura series. One thing Benny and his companions can’t afford to forget: In the great Rot & Ruin, everything wants to kill you. Has the zombie plague mutated, or is there something far more sinister behind this new invasion of the living dead? Faster, smarter, and infinitely more dangerous. And then there’s the zombies-swarms of them coming from the east, devouring everything in their paths. They come face to face with a death cult. Finding it is their best hope for having a future and a life worth living.īut the Ruin is far more dangerous than any of them can imagine.

If that jet exists then humanity itself must have survived…somewhere. Benny, Nix, Lilah, and Chong journey through a fierce wilderness that was once America, searching for the jet they saw in the skies months ago. Reeling from the devastation of Dust & Decay, Benny Imura and his friends plunge deep into the zombie-infested wastelands of the great Rot & Ruin. “The third time’s the charm with even more adventure-and gore-as the Rot & Ruin series continues” ( Kirkus Reviews).
