Descent into Shadow

In a world where the infected lurk, Sam Garcia is just trying to survive. Behind the crumbling walls of Whols, he spends his nights bartending for drunks and dodging curfews set by a ruthless regime known as The Slate. But one mistake-a bite, and a blackout-leaves him with a terrifying question:

As the city tightens its grip and the infected grow bolder, one truth becomes clear:

Some monsters aren't made. They're born.
