In a world ravaged by a deadly virus that turns the dead into reanimated killing machines, a young woman named Anya must fight for her survival and the survival of those she loves. Anya is a skilled archer and tracker, but she is also haunted by the past.
When her younger brother is bitten by the virus, she must choose between saving him or protecting herself.
As Anya makes her way through the desolate landscape, she encounters other survivors, each with their own stories to tell. She also encounters the Infected, the living dead who are driven by a relentless hunger for flesh.
Anya must use all of her skills and cunning to stay alive, but she is not alone in her fight. She finds allies in a group of other survivors, and together they form a community in an abandoned town.
But the Infected are always lurking, and Anya and her friends must be constantly on guard. They must also contend with the dangers of the human world, where food and supplies are scarce and trust is hard to come by.
All The Dead Lie Down is a story of courage, resilience, and the will to survive in a world gone mad.
