After an event known as 'The Rising', a war breaks out between humans and Zombies. When the war is eventually won by the living, the remaining undead are herded up, injected with a chemical compound which subdues the Zombie craving for brains, and released back into the community they had recently tried to destroy. We follow Keiren Walker, a young Partially Deceased Syndrome (PDS) sufferer, as he is returned back to his parents in the sleepy Lancashire village of Yealand. His attempts to reintegrate back into society are the catalyst and window to a 'them and us society' with radicals on both sides, both with their own agendas and incitements for war.
