Sri Lanka is on the edge of a mosquito-borne, zombie apocalypse.
An army zombie hunter and an NGO infection inspector struggle against the increasing, daily outbreaks in Colombo. They discover that the ‘Zees’ have a secret: one they could use to overwhelm the entire city.
Yet before they can fight the zombies, they must first overcome a panicked social media blackout; the ugliness of unchecked Sinhala-Muslim violence; and the corruption and stupidity of their own government.
By gun and blade they must somehow save their city – but first, they must save themselves.
'Zeelam' is a Sri Lankan zombie apocalypse story. Sri Lankan and Diaspora readers will appreciate the local flavor - and also the quite local problems. International fans of the genre may find these touches perplexing, but will find the mosquito-driven spread of the disease of interest, as written from the perspective of a native of a country actively fighting a mosquito-borne, dengue epidemic.
