The zombie horde that overwhelmed the United States spread to England in 1968. An infected woman aboard a British-bound flight mutated in midflight. When the plane landed, it carried a cargo of zombies and unleashed the plague of the undead on the realm. That was twenty-five years ago and since then life has been a constant tribulation.

More than depicting the horror of a swarm of zombies overrunning the country, Clive Barker employs the story as a vehicle for mocking and ridiculing royalty and the clergy. The Royal Family is depicted as a group of pompous, self-absorbed twits who insist on maintaining appearances in the face of obvious desolation. Bishop Hallam, representing the clergy, is an icon of hypocrisy as he uses his position to find boys for sexual partners, and callously gunning down the mob of zombies who get in his way.
