Gabry lives in a world changed by the Return, in a time when zombies that spread their infection through a single bite swarm outside the protected areas. In this fast-paced companion to THE FOREST OF HANDS AND TEETH, Tara Sands takes over the narration in Gabry's voice. Sands's strength is her ability to capture everything it means to be a teenager--from the hurried pace of Gabry's indecision and fear to the hesitation of her self-doubt and the excited tones of her romantic feelings--for two very different boys. The supporting characters help dramatize Gabry's story of discovery, and each has a unique voice--from the childlike vulnerability of her best friend to the cool confidence of Elias, who is part of her newly discovered past.

Ryan returns with a companion to her critically acclaimed debut, The Forest of Hands and Teeth,
which functions as something of a retelling of that story, albeit with a different protagonist. Gabry lives in the seaside town of Vista, the same place that Mary landed at the end of the previous book. Like Mary's former village, Vista is carefully protected from the Mudo (the Unconsecrated), zombielike humans constantly seeking people to infect. After a reckless nighttime adventure with her friends turns tragic, Gabry avoids punishment, but can't escape the changes to and revelations about her life that quickly mount. Like its predecessor, this book features a breach of the town, an escape into the Forest, a love triangle, the ever-present and inexhaustible Mudo, and an extraordinarily bleak mood. But it also offers an expansion of postapocalyptic detail (including the Recruiters, a militant, policelike organization that hunts and brutalizes as much as it tries to protect) and a few inspired surprises. Despite the books' similarities, readers are sure to be hooked, as this novel also retains Ryan's gripping storytelling style and engaging prose. Ages 14–up.
