Mazoch discovers an unreturned movie envelope, smashed windows, and a
pool of blood in his father's house: the man has gone missing. So he
creates a list of his father's haunts and asks Vermaelen to help track
him down.
However, hurricane season looms over Baton Rouge, threatening to wipe
out any undead not already contained and eliminate all hope of ever
finding Mazoch's father.
Bennett Sims turns typical zombie fare on its head to deliver a wise and
philosophical rumination on the nature of memory and loss.
The smartest zombie novel since Colson Whitehead's Zone One. --Ron
