Derek Grace knew the years of unemployment might make him a little "off," As the dead rise to feast on the flesh of the living, they create another kind of career opportunity. One perfectly suited for a man deeply embittered by the realities of modern American life. A man in need of getting his rage on. For Derek, civilization's fall only traded one form of fear and misery for another-but at least among the predatory dead, there's a chance for freedom. As soon as he can find a way across 600 miles of undead-infested Kansas back to what's left of his family. Assuming they're still there.... Derek Grace is good at what he does now. Crazy good. Derek Samuel Grace, a former nobody out of nowhere, arises from the gore-splattered wreckage to make his bones as the Dead Silencer in BLEEDING KANSAS
