Summary

When the honeybee population disappears and a pandemic sweeps across  the planet, the government tried a bio-engineered cure even deadlier  than the problem. Branded with the mark of the vaccine, Fiona must  navigate this new dystopian world. But there's no cure for being stung. .  . 
 
Fiona doesn't remember going to sleep. But when she opens  her eyes, she discovers her entire world has been altered-her house is  abandoned and broken, and the entire neighborhood is barren and dead.  
 
Even  stranger is the tattoo on her right wrist-a black oval with five marks  on either side-that she doesn't remember getting but somehow knows she  must cover at any cost. And she's right.  
 
When the honeybee  population collapsed, a worldwide pandemic occurred and the government  tried to bio-engineer a cure. Only the solution was deadlier than the  original problem--the vaccination turned people into ferocious, deadly  beasts who were branded as a warning to un-vaccinated survivors. Key  people needed to rebuild society are protected from disease and beasts  inside a fortress-like wall. But Fiona has awakened branded, alone-and  on the wrong side of the wall . . .
