When the world collapses, it doesn't do it quietly.
Leon S. Kennedy was an FBI agent twenty-four hours ago. Hungover. Recently dumped. Still trying to prove he wasn't just another badge with good aim. Then the dead stood up.
Now Atlanta burns.
Armed with only his Silver Ghost, a combat knife he scavenged from a ruined home, and instincts sharpened by something darker than training, Leon finds himself protecting a young girl named Sherry Birkin - daughter of CDC scientists who may know why the world ended.
On the road to Atlanta, Leon crosses paths with Kyle Borja - an Atlanta cop who moves like a ghost and cuts like a machine. Katana in hand, customized pistol at his side, Kyle is the only man Leon's ever met who fights like he's already adapted to the apocalypse.
Inside the city, survivors are fractured.
Power struggles rise.
The military has fallen.
A tank sits abandoned in the street.
And someone is still alive inside it.
As alliances form and tensions ignite, Leon must navigate not only the dead - but the living. Old names will appear. Chris. Jill. Claire. Ada. Rick. Shane. But this isn't their canon.
This is a harsher version.
A bloodier version.
A world where:
Trust is negotiated with violence.
Love is slow-burn and complicated.
The dead aren't the only monsters.
And Leon Kennedy was never in Raccoon City... but he may be standing at the start of something worse.
Survival is only the first problem.
