Aisling Grimlock should be happy. She's living with and engaged to the man of her dreams, her mother isn't eating people … at least out in the open, her best friend is distracted by wedding details … mostly, and there are zombies running around Detroit. Yeah, it's that last one that's driving her crazy … especially because no one in her family believes her when she spouts the tall tale. Aisling Grimlock is a reaper in trouble. She's got big decisions in front of her and nonstop trouble chasing behind. The dead appear to be rising … and they've got their eyes (and teeth, for that matter) trained on Aisling and her family. Even though the rest of the family thinks she's exaggerating – or even lying because she's looking for attention – they're determined to help before Aisling goes over the edge. It seems there might be a little something going on, and Aisling might have been right all along. You know what that means, right? Yes, she's doing her “I'm right" dance … and then ducking for cover. It's going to take every Grimlock to fight this enemy, and even then, Aisling will be isolated in the end. The question is: Can she win the day or is she destined to join the creatures stalking her?
