Double-barrel shotgun

"Everyone hears about disease. It's affected us all in one way or another, be it through one's self or a distant relative, we all know someone plagued with an illness. But in the case of New York City, nearly everyone was sick. Some called it a curse, some called it punishment. But a group of non-infected that had banded together called it a small scale armageddon."

Alex died. He was infected, and couldn't be saved. John knew that.
But when an undead monster shows up with a hoard with those same brown eyes, he can't help but wonder if what was buried stayed dead.
