There has been a rabies outbreak in Los Angeles and the government's militia have advised the public to spend the next 4 years in confinement in their bunkers, with regular updates over radio. Sherry and her family have run out of food, and contact has been lost with the outer world. Sherry and her father decide to exit the bunker and find food, but instead of finding food they find the Weepers - rabies infected humans with puss oozing from their eyes. The father is taken away to a weeper's nest, and Sherry finds help in the form of Jacob and other survivors who have taken refuge in a big villa - the Safe Haven. It slowly emerges that the area the survivors live in is actually fenced off from the rest of the country, and the military have no intention of letting those survivors - or the weepers - through back to humanity.A good story - first in a series - a bit too fluffy when the romance is described. Jacob and Sherry seem to quickly form a relationship before they even know much about each other. But they are both sharing an existence of fear, and worry whether they'll survive another attack from the weepers.
