A rogue prion disease, nicknamed Falling Down Flu, has wiped out most of the world's population. Some survivors have been infected by a secondary disease. Aggressive and erratic, they become known as Screamers, but the zombie-like Screamers are not the only enemy. Society has broken down. Raiders roam the countryside while pests and parasites thrive. Chrissie Cunningham is alone in the post-apocalyptic city of Dundee where death stalks the streets. To survive, she must escape the city. Meanwhile, in a remote Highland village, a small group of survivors has banded together. Shaw, their reluctant leader, is a troubled man who resents the responsibility heaped upon him. With jealousy and conflict within the group, the survivors pose as much danger to each other as external threats and the worst winter in decades is about to descend. Who will survive EACH NEW MORN?
