Synopsis
In an alternate Civil War-era Seattle, a catastrophic mining drill unleashed a toxic gas that turned the population into zombies. Sixteen years later, Briar Wilkes ventures into the walled-off city to find her teenage son, who has gone inside looking for evidence to clear his late father’s name. Steampunk adventure meets zombie horror.
