In the Flesh

Partially Deceased Syndrome sufferer Kieren Walker returns home to Roarton, but doesn't receive a warm welcome. His parents, Steve and Sue, are pleased to see him, but his sister, Jem, isn't so ready to pick up where they left off when Kieren died back in 2009. Meanwhile, the zombie-hating Human Volunteer Force is ready to take action against any PDS sufferer reintegrated on their patch.

Feeling trapped at home, Kieren escapes to his grave where he is reunited with his old hunting partner, Amy Dyer, who persuades him to take a dangerous day trip. Kieren discovers that Rick, his former best mate who died in Afghanistan, is back in town.

After visiting the supermarket where he used to hunt, Kieren remembers that Jem once spared his life. Together, brother and sister confront the demons in their pasts and visit Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster (the parents of the girl from Kieren's flashbacks). Kieren then has to say goodbye to Amy who is leaving in search of The Prophet. Will Kieren and Rick be able to find acceptance as PDS sufferers?
