The Flacalta Effect
Keesha and Toya are Black sisters whose house is being infiltrated by the undead. Keesha and Toya couldn’t be more different. Keesha’s hardened to the world because of everything she’s experienced as a Black woman in America and has no desire to fight to escape. Toya, an open-hearted optimist, believes that if they survive this zombie attack, maybe they can live to see a better world. All they have to do is kill a couple of zombies, not murder each other in the process, and maybe they’ll survive. . . . Maybe.
