Dr. Raina Markum and Dr. Martin Welch return to Sars Springs to find that the town is underwater. Not only has a chain reaction caused a flood of the town, but several family members have also lost their lives or just became homeless.

As Raina joins forces with Colonel Mac Helms and the Army, she desperately tries to find those who are deemed missing, including her son, Logan. In the wake of the flood, the town isn't the only thing that is starting to be rebuilt. Limbs, organs, and the dead ... well, eight of them, are starting to be rebuilt.

What effect will the rebuilds have on the lives of Sars Springs? What happens when the chosen eight dead are slowly awakened? Raina hits an emotional rollercoaster when she realizes that a part of her is also being rebuilt. Will the Markums be strong enough to handle the obstacles that hit them one after another? Will Sars Springs truly be an awakened town, or it will continue to drown itself?
