There is a small town in Oregon called Middle Falls. When people die there, one of three things happens to them: They pass on to what is next. They are recycled to an earlier point in their life.

Presidents, premieres, prime ministers, entire governments disappeared instantly, like a fragile house of cards in a hurricane. Some hid deep underground or holed up in fortified strongholds, but most were swallowed up by the dead, never to be heard from again. Created in a biosafety level-four lab in Wuhan, China, a bioweapon meant to sicken and quickly kill an enemy population - leaving intact infrastructure, resources, and vast swaths of fertile farmland - instead causes the infected to die and return as mindless, flesh-eating zombies.
