Welcome to the apocalypse. On repeat.

On any given day, millions of people are in London. Now they’ve gone. But they’re still hungry, and these dead don’t walk… they run.

At moonrise, London reboots: sirens, smoke, sprinting dead. Parkour-hardened survivor Zane survives by motion, flying from roof to roof, balcony to bus. He wakes every day beside his best friend, who now wants to eat him, forcing a last-second swan dive off Tower Bridge for breakfast. Death isn’t an exit; it’s a restart.

Zane hunts for the cause, a way out, five lifetimes of searching. His only clue, a flash across the financial district. Until one day, a bedsheet hanging from the Tower of London sends him to the Sky Garden to meet Nina. He measures days in rooftops and near-misses; she measures them in the things time refuses to delete. Together, they face a crumbling London, unravelling time, and intersecting only once every five days.

With Nina at his side, Zane will stop running and start fighting back, but if they end the loop, everything could end. Is a future without each other a future they want? At least it’s a future. With a chance.

CTRL-Z is a breathless and gory daily apocalypse with gallows humour and zombies. Run. Reset. Repeat. Remember.
