But as the unfathomable killings stalk closer and closer to home, Marcia must grapple with loss in ways she never imagined. She comes to Sam for help, unaware that an illicit affair may destroy their friendship. Uncle Mal returns to Portland after an old lover disappears, leaving only a mysterious voicemail and orders to care for an ancient lizard. As Marcia dives into the darkest pits of the Wild West, she fears everyone has finally lost their minds. Secrets haunting her family and friends are unearthed with the rise of the living dead, and it is up to Marcia to put them to rest.
