What started as a night at the theater and a meteor shower ended with the dead walking the planet.

Living in a fortified cul-de-sac in the shadow of Boston a group of refugees have etched out their survival. At times they're not sure who to fear more, the zombies wandering the streets or the power mad "controller" of Boston, Richard Crenshaw.

Until the day a crazed environmentalist shows up at the gates with promises of "the cure" disrupting their lives.

With a handful of volunteers, Catherine sets off with her team to follow the half-mad scientist to Florida to where he believes the cure for the zombie plague exists. When they arrive in the swamp they are greeted by unexpected horrors both human and inhuman.

The insanity of the scientist, Pierce leads them on a chase through the swamps of Florida searching the cure that ends badly for everyone.
