Boneshaker by Cherie Priest

2.0

Seattle in an alternate history 1860s is ripped open by a man trying to build a machine that will drill for gold through Alaskan ice. The torn earth releases noxious gas that turns people into zombies. Briar is a swashbuckling mother who tries to save her son from the ruins of the lawless, zombie ridden, walled Seattle.
