Life's tough in America. Especially when you're dead.
PI Jon Faraday thought finding a runaway girl would be easy money. But when the girl turns up dead – the first American to be really, truly dead in decades – Faraday must hit the streets to find her killer. With the help of a decapitated head named Dorothy, a necrophilic pathologist, and an undead reporter who'd give her right arm for a story (literally), Faraday must discover why the runaway girl didn’t relive as a zombie after she died, before the ever-present distrust between the living and the dead explodes into a lifism riot that could burn New York City to the ground.
DEAD AMERICA is set in a world where the undead hold down jobs at McDonald's, necrophilia is no longer a crime and zombies have the constitutional right to vote. Called the Newly Dead by scientists, necros by the common people and neccers by Life Supremacists, the undead are treated like second class citizens. But in a country where the afterlife is the same as life before death, can anyone really live anyway?
Part detective noir, part horror, part satire.
Welcome to Dead America.
Land of the dead and home of the grave.
