Disowned Ethan commands undead after serum injection, but a mutant beast halts his northward journey.
Ethan loses his family when the outbreak begins and stakes everything on a black-market evolution serum. The injection rewrites his biology so that the dead no longer hunt him — they obey, swelling into a legion that grows stronger each day. While survivors pour south toward Denver's promised safety, Ethan walks north alone, drawn to a bridge where a single mutant beast has held him in place for three weeks. As his controlled horde becomes more powerful, the line between the master directing them and the monster he is becoming grows thinner.
