Summary
Jesse Van McCree has been recalled by Overwatch to investigate a series of events threatening to disrupt the balance between the living and the dead.

Together, they begin to piece together a puzzle that goes deeper than the dead rising from their graves, and find themselves faced with a fight that will reawaken the past and tie them together in the present.
