[High-Intensity Warning: This is an extremely dark post-apocalyptic novel. It contains cold-blooded, brutal killings, bizarre survival rules, and a suffocating collapse of social ethics. Anyone of fragile disposition, and all minors, should leave immediately!]
When the “Clean Eye” virus breaks out, those infected do not turn into mindless zombies. A vertical, scar-like welt appears above and below their single eye. They retain all their memories, skills, and intelligence. The only thing completely erased is their conscience.
They are no longer frenzied. They have evolved into “absolute rationality.”
There is no mindless biting in this book, only the industrialized slaughter of humans treated as consumable goods. They process their own kind with the precise techniques of anatomy, just as they would pigs. They maintain meticulous records, grading survivors by blood type and meat quality. They smile as they knock on your door, simply to meet that day's “intake quota.”
They pen survivors up, breed them, and take them as needed. Before this cold, meticulously engineered order, human kindness, maternal love, and compassion all become fatal weaknesses, exploited until they kill.
They do not think they are cruel. They simply think it is “efficient.”
Before opening this book, be sure you understand: once that scar grows over your eye, it can never be washed away.
