PSYCHOLOGIST SAM MAXWELL LIVES in a city collapsing under plague, paperwork, and the weight of its own forgotten dead. When the Reborn begin to appear-cured of the virus, but emptied of feeling-Sam takes a job in the morgue, chasing answers. What begins as cold, procedural work in the morgue leads him into locked freezers, lost files, and whispers no one wants to admit are real.
THE DEAD ARE RETURNING. They watch. Some wait. And one of them might be his mother. As the line between grief and madness thins, Sam must confront not just what the virus took-but what it left behind.
THE NOT SO DEAD PEOPLE is a wryly observed, meditative descent through identity, memory, and the quiet horror of resurrection. Blending dystopian noir with metaphysical dread, it asks what we owe the dead-and what they might remember of us.
