About this ebook
When the city sleeps, the dead start to walk...
Something has sealed off Cardiff, and living corpses are stalking the streets, leaving a trail of half-eaten bodies. Animals are butchered. A young couple in their car never reach their home. A stolen yacht is brought back to shore, carrying only human remains. And a couple of girls heading back from the pub watch the mysterious drivers of a big black SUV take over a crime scene.
Torchwood have to deal with the intangible barrier surrounding Cardiff, and some unidentified space debris that seems to be regenerating itself. Plus, of course, the all-night zombie horror show.
Not that they really believe in zombies.
Featuring Captain Jack Harkness as played by John Barrowman, with Gwen Cooper and Ianto Jones as played by Eve Myles and Gareth David-Lloyd, in the hit science fiction series created by Russell T Davies for BBC Television.

The scenes in this book jump from one sentence to the next. The line spacing should have larger breaks to give the reader a moment between scenes. It was a very confusing read one storyline jumped to another set of characters then back again on the same page with little fanfare. If you read the words you sometimes had to go back and reread the paragraph to find your place in the storyline. The zombie thing has been so overdone of late. I was disappointed by the characters and the tone of this book, the only highpoint is Gwen and Rhys, everything else wasn't as strong character wise.

Scared the living daylights out of me, well written but gave me nightmares. Everything was so well described I could visualise it. I already have a phobia about zombies
