Volume 4 in the Adventures of V series

A fearless sheriff, a pregnant art historian, a mad scientist, a shackled prisoner, a zombie reporter, an orphaned boy, a zombie film star, a gung-ho colonel, an ancient goddess, a reptilian secret service agent, a gorgeous Synthetic Individual, a stubborn ship's captain, an adoring zombie, are all caught up - with V - in a tsunami of chaos when the zombie virus overwhelms Miami, and spreads, like wildfire, through Florida and beyond. 

The great luxury liner, the Eden of the Seas, steered by zombies - directed by an invisible central mind, the Puppet Master - has crashed into the Miami seafront, unleashing the zombie pandemic which now rages out of control on the mainland, overwhelming Miami, Fort Lauderdale, much of Florida, and heading for New York City and Houston, Texas. 

Leaping from the Eden before it crashed, V had kidnapped the US president, Katherine du Bois Hughes, and had gotten her to safety on the research ship, Andromeda II

On Andromeda II, Andromeda Corp CEO Sabrina Jacobs and V arrange to get the president back to Washington so Katherine can reverse a coup d tat, carried out by the fundamentalist vice president, Joseph Humility Ebenezer Jackson, and seize back control of the government.

Returning to Andromeda II with Monica and her baby, V, accompanied by a beautiful Marine sergeant and a handsome Navy captain, sets off to meet the Puppet Master. On the terrorist yacht, A Flight of Fancy, she travels through a shimmering space-time gateway into an alternative universe. There V and her fellow castaways - and their guide, a teenage goddess, Isis - find themselves on a lush, primitive, paradise-like island. Here, in this strange alternate world, the natives worship V as a long-absent goddess who has returned to them. V must perform endless ceremonies, accepting one human sacrifice after another, emptying her victims of their blood. Getting spoiled, the worshippers clamor for more spectacular performances.

Finally, one day, V, helped by young Isis, travels deep underground, into the bowels of the earth, under a volcano, and confronts the source of the pandemic, the Puppet Master. He is none other than a grotesque re...
