They call it Deadtown: the city's quarantined section for its inhuman and undead residents. Most humans stay far from its border - but Victory Vaughn, Boston's only professional demon slayer, isn't exactly human. Boston's zombies have suddenly become inexplicably violent - horror movie-style - resulting in a catastrophic all-out battle against humans. More troubling to Vicky is that she's had dreams and visions of herself fighting alongside the demons. At least, she hopes they're just visions. If not, she's on the front lines of the wrong side of the war.
