Jason Robert Thornton delivers a tense survival horror narrative driven by a grieving physician’s desperate attempt to save wounded soldiers. The story effectively blends military conflict with supernatural elements, tracking the plague's spread through diverse characters like John Smith and Aaron Baccharus.
