Tokyo is about to learn what hunger really means.
Rina Sato sells smiles for a living. By night she pours drinks for lonely men in Kabukicho's hostess clubs; by day she sleeps through the city's noise and dreams of anywhere else. She never imagined the end of the world would start on her commute home.
It begins on the Yamanote Line at rush hour - a salaryman collapses, dies, and gets back up wrong. Within minutes, Shibuya crossing - the busiest intersection on earth - becomes a slaughterhouse. The infected don't shamble. They sprint. They hunt in the crush of the crowd, and Tokyo's thirteen million people are the perfect feeding ground.
Trapped on the last train circling a dying city, Rina falls in with Kenji Mori, an ex-Yakuza enforcer with a metal bat, a death sentence of tattoos, and nothing left to lose. Together they'll cross a Tokyo transformed: love hotels turned fortresses, pachinko parlors turned charnel houses, the neon still burning over streets full of the Starved.
To get out alive, they'll have to ride straight through the deadliest city on earth - and decide what surviving is actually worth.
NEON REQUIEM is a full-length, standalone zombie-apocalypse novel set in Nelsinfinity's DEAD EARTH universe. Brutal, profane, explicit, and utterly unputdownable. For adult readers.
Perfect for fans of Max Brooks, Mira Grant, and Manel Loureiro's Apocalypse Z.
