Author Note
The first book was born out of a powerful image that flashed into my mind one day at work. It was of Jenni standing on her porch staring down at the bottom of the front door. Pressed under the door, trying to reach her, were the grasping fingers of her zombified little boy. During my break, I quickly wrote "Tiny Fingers." At first I thought it was just a short story, but after readers positively responded to the post and encouraged me to continue, I realized there was a whole lot more to the story.
And that was how the series was born.
