Their town is on the brink of collapse, and they realize they need a NEW plan, and FAST! Their solution? Lure the zombies to an old quarry and blow it sky-high! 💥 But things go HORRIBLY wrong when the explosives detonate prematurely, leaving the town in ruins and their hopes dwindling. Just when all seems lost, Linda has a MOMENT OF BRILLIANCE! ✨ She remembers how a zombie reacted to her calm voice and wonders... what if they've been approaching this all wrong? 🤔 Could EMPATHY be the key to controlling the undead horde? And what about the MYSTERIOUS MAD SCIENTISTbehind this outbreak?

Civilization crumbles in a matter of hours. By the end of the first day, the streets are filled with shambling corpses, mindless beings driven solely by the desire to feed. Jacob Thornton decides his only chance is to abandon his home. Fleeing the city, he travels north, encountering other survivors on the way.
