Rise of the Departed

By Alex Goulding

The dead were never meant to rise.

A dare in a silent graveyard awakens something ancient-and hungry. Gareth and his friends laugh at the spell... until the ground begins to stir and their worst nightmares claw their way into the world.

Two years later, the cities have fallen. The living fight to survive among the ruins, hunted by creatures that should never have existed. Gareth carries the weight of that night, haunted by guilt and by the people he couldn't save.

But when he meets other survivors-each with their own scars and secrets-he begins to wonder: could the same curse that started it all also be the key to ending it?

Rise of the Departed is a chilling tale of survival, guilt, and the thin line between humanity and the horrors we unleash.
