Deads Rise! by Shawn Whitney

They all died at once. Everyone aged 13 to 45.
But eight hours later, they woke up. No heartbeat. No breath. Bodies at room temperature.
Their skin peels away. The sun feeds them now, not food. And no one – not even the Deads themselves – knows what they’re becoming.
Young scientist Tanitia Mortero races across a fracturing America, desperate to unlock the truth of what the Deads are becoming. In New York City, Lianne and Booker lead the Deads in a revolt against extinction as the fanatical Year Zero Army closes in.
And in a small town, a young survivor of a religious cult discovers that sometimes the greatest monsters aren’t the Deads – they’re the ones who hunt them, including their own families.
Militias form and internment camps are filled with the dead.
The living can’t accept evolution. The Deads can’t stop it.
