A chronicle of survival in a world of the living dead.

The Dead Bear Witness
Sentenced to life after a bank robbery gone bad, Cornell thought his worst nightmare had come true-and that he deserved it. After a stint in solitary, though, he learned his nightmare had only started: While Cornell rotted in isolation, all around the world the dead had returned to life.
Inside the prison walls, Cornell should’ve been well protected.
He didn’t reckon on the stone-cold killer who demanded his help breaking out, nor the fanatic warden who forced him to help ‘save the souls’ of other prisoners. He didn’t count on being snared in a web of lies, violence, and betrayal. He didn’t expect his survival to depend on fighting his way back to freedom before the eyes of the watchful dead. Now as nooses sway over the prison yard, Cornell can almost feel one tightening around his neck, and freedom seems so far away….
