The protagonist of the story is Maddie Pace, a timid and indecisive young woman who lives on a small island named Gennesault (or "Jenny"), off the coast of [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maine"]Maine[/URL]. Maddie is both pregnant and a widow, having recently lost her husband in a [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_boat"]fishing boat[/URL] accident.
After a scattering of initial outbreaks, dead bodies all over the world begin to reanimate [I]en masse[/I] and attack the living. The source of the phenomenon is eventually traced to a bizarre, presumably alien, construct in orbit high above the Earth's [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_pole"]south pole[/URL] (more precisely "above the hole in the [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone_layer"]ozone layer[/URL]".)
