Summary from Goodreads:
Tom Harding only wants the truth. But the truth is becoming more dangerous with every passing minute.
As a reporter for his high school newspaper, Tom Harding was tracking the best story of his life when, suddenly, his life turned very, very weird. He woke up one morning to find his house empty . . . his street empty . . . his whole town empty . . . empty except for an eerie, creeping fog and whatever creatures were slowly moving toward him through the fog.
Now Tom s once-ordinary world has become something out of a horror movie. How did it happen? Is it real? Is he dreaming? Has there been a zombie apocalypse? Has he died and gone to hell?
Tom is a good reporter he knows how to look for answers but no one has ever covered a story like this before. With the fog closing in and the hungry creatures of the fog surrounding him, he has only a few hours to find out how he lost the world he knew. In this bizarre universe nothing is what it seems and everything including Tom s life hangs in the balance.

Guest Post: Books Into Movies
One of the things I get asked about a lot — like, a lot! — is whether or not a book is going to be turned into a movie. And also who I’d like to see cast in the movie. And as often as I get asked those questions, I find them hard to answer for the simple reason that I try very hard not to think about the movies when I’m writing a book.
A book and a movie are very different things. Their stories are built differently, their characters are revealed differently. A lot of times a scene that is great to read is not so good to watch and vice versa. So when I’m writing a book I try very hard to keep movies out of my mind. I don’t want to think about some actor and have his presence overwhelm the character I’m trying to create. I don’t want to create a good movie scene that won’t read as well as a good book scene. Most of all, I want to make sure the reader gets an exciting story experience in his or her mind without worrying about what it would look like onscreen.
I work so hard to put movies out of my mind that, when someone asks me about who should be cast in the movie, I kind of stand there saying, “Uh....” a lot even though I knew the question was coming.
