Theme
The theme of this book is don't be shy and don't only rely on yourself. You need friends to help you through the hard and the bad times. Family and friends are the two main things that help you through hard times. Without these two main people in your life you would be a lot harder. This means to me that you need people in your life.
Symbolism
One of the main symbols in the book is the omega necklace that was given to Molly when she was young. The necklace stands hope and love. It is the only thing she had left of her mother that is special to her. The sign on the necklace is the sign of the group of zombie hunters.

The conflict Molly has is that she needs to find out who chased her and her mom when she was little girl. While this chase was going on she got afraid of heights.

Later when she finds out her mom was killed she was determined to find out who did it. this book is man vs. man
