Standing next to their battered Humvee, Jim, Martin and Frankie stared into the distance. A cemetery stretched off to the horizon along both sides of New Jersey's Garden State Parkway, and the highway cut right through the graveyard's center. Thousands of tombstones thrust upward to the sky, surrounded by tenements and overgrown vacant lots. Tombs and crypts also dotted the landscape, but the sheer number of gravestones almost overwhelmed them.

Wow - that sounds great!
I requested this one for my son Marc and he read what you posted and was all excited because it picks up from the first book, The Rising.
