Story: Detective Terry Lane is a standout cop—as tough as Eliot Ness of The Untouchables—who thought he’d seen it all . . . until now.  But he’s never seen a murder spree like this.  The evidence is clear: the killers have not emerged from the underside of the city, but from six feet under it—the walking dead.  And if Lane doesn’t think outside the box . . . he could end up inside one, buried alive.
