The pandemic was supposed to be over. But inside a recovering hospital, something has changed. Patients awaken from comas—confused, trembling… then screaming. Within hours, the wards become a slaughterhouse as the infected turn on the living with mindless fury.
A small group of survivors fights their way out, clinging to hope as the world beyond collapses. But when the broadcasts stop and the power dies, hope dies with it. Everywhere else has already fallen.
Haunted by guilt and loss, one man walks away from it all. He seals himself inside an abandoned warehouse, building walls to keep the world out—and his memories in. Broken by what he’s seen, he tells himself he’s safer alone. He tells himself he doesn’t care.
Months later, in the bitter cold of winter, a knock echoes through the silence. A young woman from his past stands at his door—badly injured, begging for help. A group of armed men have taken hostages back at the hospital. Against his instincts, he agrees to go—unaware the journey will lead him through the ruins of what he tried to forget, and toward a truth that could change everything.
In a world stripped of mercy, hope can be more dangerous than the infected.
