After facing an alligator attack and a paddle boat accident in search of the zombie stone, August comes out unscathed...but emptyhanded. At least Claudette is still by his side, along with a few more zombies. Of course, it isn't long before a few zombies becomes a horde, and August has so many questions: What is he supposed to do with all of these zombies? What is his Aunt Orchid hiding? Will his life ever be like Stella Starz (in her own life)? And most importantly, will he ever find the zombie stone and get everything back to normal?
