Civilisation ended in terror and chaos. And that was the easy part.
Estate agent Johann just wanted a few days' break from the hustle and bustle of the big city. But a holiday in a mountain cabin soon turns into a fight for survival when an unknown pandemic strikes the world. The lucky ones just die. But for most people, the virus turns them into bloodthirsty zombies.
Johann tries to get back to Brno as quickly as possible in the hope of finding help for his dying girlfriend, Renáta, but the disease has already engulfed the entire city. In just a few days, the Moravian capital is reduced to ruins, fit only for rats and feral dogs. It seems that Johann, who is for some reason immune to the infection, is the last man on Earth.
A pistol taken from a dead police officer could be the solution to his despair and fear of terrifying loneliness. Yet Johann pushes on, past the heaps of corpses—both the ordinary kind and the ones trying to eat him—still firmly believing that someone else must have survived. When he finally meets someone, the gun saves his life. Because for some people, the zombie apocalypse isn't a nightmare, but a dream come true…
