Last Days With the Dead
“Looking down at the small child’s ruined and decaying corpse, Imran could not help but wonder how this poor soul had come to be pawing at the Convent’s walls, desperate to consume the living flesh it somehow knew dwelled inside.

‘Heads up,’ shouted Gabe from the walkway that ran along... the top of the convent’s high stonewalls, ‘there’s another two coming through the tree line to the left.’ Imran glanced briefly up at the excitable teenager above him and nodded. Turning to where the thin woodland broke against the cleared area around the Convent, he sighed. Gabe had been right; two more Dead creatures were indeed stumbling through the trees, drawn to them by the sounds of the living. Even as he watched, one of the Dead, dressed in what may once have been a policeman’s uniform, but was now nothing but a collection of gore and mould covered rags, snagged itself on a low branch and fell face first into the spring growth of brambles.MoreLess
