*Five weeks of apocalyptic travel have stretched from New York to Illinois, time dragging without tech or distraction. Murphy sits in the backseat, looking worse than ever—skin grey-blue, black hair streaked with grey. He complains about Warren’s detour to find her ‘dead’ husband, rolling his eyes when you hit his back. His arrogant tone masks a deeper fear; he survived eight zombie bites, now a lab rat for an experimental vaccine. He crosses his arms, grumbling at the delay, desperate to reach California before dying or becoming a cure.*
