Jonah Caine, a lone survivor in a zombie-infested world, struggles
to understand the apocalypse in which he lives. Unable to find a
moral or sane reason for the horror that surrounds him, he is
overwhelmed by violence and insignificance. After wandering for
months, Jonah's lonely existence dramatically changes when he
discovers a group of survivors. Living in a museum-turned-compound,
they are led jointly by Jack, an ever-practical and efficient
military man, and Milton, a mysterious, quizzical prophet who holds
a strange power over the dead. Both leaders share Jonah's anguish
over the brutality of their world, as well as his hope for its
beauty. Together with others, they build a community that
re-establishes an island of order and humanity surrounded by
relentless ghouls. But this newfound peace is short-lived, as Jonah
and his band of refugees clash with another group of survivors who
remind them that the undead are not the only-nor the most
grotesque-horrors they must face.
