Dead of Night / Jonathan Maberry / 357 pages / December Challenge Apocalyptic Literature

A plague has been loosed on the earth by one mad Russian Scientist currently working for the CIA.  His entire family was tortured and murdered by a serial killer.  Perfecting Project Lucifer 113, he has created a cocktail that turns humans into flesh-eating zombies.  Working at a prison, he sought to inject killers on death row so that when buried they would be aware of their circumstances and would be consumed by them.  Unfortunately, a serial killer's aunt claims his body after death.  When the body arrives at the local mortuary, Armageddon is unleashed.  Detective Desdemona Fox and her partner JT are sent to the mortuary in response to a 911 call from the cleaning lady.  Will the President follow the suggestions of his advisers and bomb the town and all its inhabitants to contain the plague?   Is this the end of the world?
