Welcome to the New America, population: 0 When a bacterial outbreak contaminates America"s lower atmosphere, the resulting rain mutates into a deadly conduit for death. Human"s all over America are exposed and within a matter of days society has crumbled and the walking dead rule the land. The America we know is gone, replaced by a new order; where the dead walk and humans are the prey. Henry Watson and his small group of companions travel the country, searching for someplace better, someplace where the rain is safe. In the New America the rules have changed; survive or perish.
