Red Suit Rising: A Zombie Christmas Survival Novel

By Melissa Finley

Christmas Eve was supposed to be safe.
Santa Claus was supposed to be harmless.
The dead had other plans.

Frank never believed in holiday miracles-until Christmas Eve turned into a nightmare of blood, snow, and screams. When a hired Santa collapses at a suburban party and rises again... wrong, the night descends into chaos.

As a fast-spreading infection turns neighbors into relentless predators, Frank must fight to protect his wife Sarah and their young son Billy. But this outbreak is different. The dead aren't just hunting-they're learning.

At the center of it all is a terrifying figure in a scorched red suit, commanding the undead with chilling intelligence.
Trapped in a collapsing town where Christmas cheer masks unspeakable horror, survivors are forced to make impossible choices. Loyalty shatters. Sacrifice becomes survival. And one father must decide how far he's willing to go to end the nightmare-no matter the cost.

Red Suit Rising is a brutal, cinematic zombie thriller that blends holiday horror with heart-pounding survival, perfect for fans of The Walking Dead, Train to Busan, and Black Summer.
