When the dead in Fairfield begin waking-pleading, sobbing, and driven by unrelenting violence, Eddie Langley quickly discovers they're not like the horror movies he's grown up watching. As his sleepy town splinters under the weight of paranoia, suspicion, and mounting terror, Eddie and a group of survivors must piece together what's happening before the madness spreading through Fairfield consumes them all. But the deeper they dig, the more they realize the true horror may lie much closer to home.

He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in.
