About

The frozen wasteland of Alaska—a place where temperatures never climb above 64°F, even in summer. Not many people can survive in this brutal environment, but those who do have managed to carve out cities and build tight-knit communities. Then one day, a virus escapes from an extraterrestrial research facility. People infected by this pathogen lose all higher brain function, driven by a single, primal instinct: bite any living thing they encounter and spread the contagion to other organisms. Some infected show unusual behavior—they're strangely docile. They'll follow commands from half-infected individuals, shuffle around in groups, or refuse to attack someone they cared about before the infection took hold. But these cases are incredibly rare. Most infected will tear into anything that moves—hell, even other infected look like prime rib to them. It's a death sentence out there, but some orphaned teens refuse to hide in the government bunkers. Instead, they barricade themselves in abandoned schools or government buildings, raid nearby towns for weapons and supplies, and try to survive on their own terms. But when they run into armed gangs, most of them don't make it. And even if they survive that nightmare, they still face starvation, disease, and the endless threat of the infected.
