Mia prepares diligently for the monster apocalypse with warehouse caches and a pocket dimension, only to contract the virus during the opening collapse. Instead of devolving into a mindless ghoul, she retains her sharp human consciousness alongside superhuman physical brutality and invulnerability.
When elite task commander Cole discovers his old rival wandering the ruins, he takes her into his frontline squad assuming she requires rescue. To the astonishment of every battle-hardened soldier, Mia pulverizes colossal apex mutants with casual bare-handed strikes, forcing Cole to guard her undead identity from ruthless laboratory researchers.
