Two weeks before Halloween, Jason McNab and Dustin Karp planned a fright-filled trip with ten friends. Dustin, the owner of a multi-million-dollar entertainment empire, purchased a large million-dollar bus to travel to the best haunted houses on the east coast.

Paid actors jumped out at them dressed in ghoulish costumes Though they knew it was a show, the frightful events gave them shivers of fear. As they proceed, strange things begin to occur. An eerie presence offered subliminal messages that none understood, directing them to an evil place.

His perfect match
In this second book of the New Beginnings, all the characters from the first book are back and we get to see more of Joel and his best friend Slade. Both of them have suffered both physically and emotionally after their time in the army and they are trying their best to cope. This story centers around Joel and the girl he meets, Courtney. Their first couple of encounters don’t go well, but still, there is something between them and Joel is determined to pursue a relationship with Courtney. This book delves into PTSD (which both Joel and Slade suffer from) and the difficulties living with it.





Fantastic!
JI really enjoyed this book! It’s not your typical zompoc novel. The first part was my favorite; so much character building going on that helps you understand Casey’s actions later in the novel. Because of this, the first section goes at a slower pace, but then the action revs up. Here is where you really get to see Casey in action. She’s a strong female who messes up, gets things right, and sometimes, just plain lucks out. Again, the first part did an amazing job of setting the reader up for knowing why Casey is doing/saying things. Can’t wait to read the next one!!
