About the book
"Young paints vivid pictures throughout, not only of the carnage but of the mental state of his protagonist Viktor as he struggles to survive in a world cast into chaos before his very eyes."–Brett Allen, author of Sly Fox Hollow
"My first zombie read in such a long time and it does the genre right!"–Alana K. Drex, author of Sleeping Celeste
The undead still carry memories of the past: a phone, a wallet of family photos, an ID. After a ravaging plague has turned humanity into a race of flesh-eating monsters, remembering these victims as people falls on one man—a grieving, hopeless survivor who feels called to collect these artifacts.
Years of living in solitude grind away until Viktor discovers the ID of a woman whose photo doesn't match the corpse that carried it. Imagining that she may still be alive, he conjures a plan to track her down by traveling thousands of miles to foster the only thing more dangerous than the dead: HOPE.
On this mission he’ll face hordes of the infected, the horrific beast that sparked the outbreak, and an old foe from the past from whom he barely escaped with his own life.
Ryan Young’s debut novel Keeper of the Dead is an intense and binge-worthy horror thriller that will frighten, shock, and influence the very perception of your own mortality.
