Daniel walked in the land of the dead. Now the dead want him back. Daniel Stratton died and was forced to go into the light. It was there he saw seven shadow figures that reached out for him. As he fled the light, he was marked by each of their handprints. After his escape, Daniel learned that the shadows would come for him in the form of those around him that were about to die. These innocents would become the walking dead, hopeless pawns sent to recapture him by any means possible. If Daniel can survive until the next full moon, he will be free. But how can he escape the dead?
