Michael Ginlink’s life ended. He’s still bitter about it.

The only undead worker at the city morgue, Michael helps the Medical Examiner with the cases that can’t be dealt with by the Police, working towards freeing himself from his unlife. In the mean time he gets a cool place to sleep and all the spare parts he can eat.

But Michael’s existence is upset by the return of his demented brother Lee, whose arrival coincides with a spate of killings that are filling up the local morgue with fresh corpses. Corpses that are getting up again to do some killing of their own.

Now Michael has to choose between his old life amongst the living and helping Lee fight the new army of the dead.
