Requiem for a Pandemic - Hussein Tymur

The spirit of Christmas faces its greatest challenge. After the apocalyptic COVID-19 Zeta strain devastated humanity, Kris, once known as Santa, wanders a desolate world, now ruled by the walking dead. Depressed and aimless, he stumbles upon Coode Island, a struggling settlement on the brink of collapse and sees a glimmer of hope.

Determined to revive the spirit of Christmas, Kris seeks the help of his wife, Martha, and his old friends, April, the Tooth Fairy, and Harry, the Easter Bunny. Together, they confront the dangers of this new world and the divisions and deceptions threatening to tear them apart.

As Kris battles to restore the traditions that once brought people together, he discovers his greatest fight is not against the hordes of Zetas, but against his reluctance to see his wife, Martha, beyond her role as Mrs Klaus.
