The Sea of Okhotsk north of the Japanese Home Islands is a cold and unforgiving place. Its icy, dark waters can change from a glass-smooth calm into a raging maelstrom in a heartbeat. The shores surrounding the sea, home to Siberian tigers and prowling wolf packs, are equally forbidding. Far from Mother Russia, beyond Siberia, it is a mostly forgotten land—even though it is the home of the Russian Navy's Pacific Fleet.

As the wine and conversation begin to flow at a reunion between six women who were friends at school, memories start to surface - some happy, others bittersweet, and a few that are downright poisonous....

Ken and Bennett Johnson own Fearless Brewery, a place where you can come in for a bite to eat and sample their newest beers in a relaxing atmosphere...until the undead rose and began to destroy humanity.

It will be no small feat as he faces not only the walking dead, but also small town squabbles and worse...outsiders.

There are few moments in life that change you like being held at gunpoint.

In fact, Seth could say his life is full of reminders: how empty life is without another to share it with; how much pain is involved when trying to move on from the death of a loved one.
