On a private island in the Caribbean, business guru Doc Papa has reinvented the zombie as a role-model for the super rich.
The world's business elite come to St. Ignatius to study the Way of the Barefoot Zombie and interact with a captive colony of the undead. They live with them, dress like them and act like them in order to free their own inner zombies.
Once they've learned to harness the zombie's single minded lust for food nothing will stop them from making a killing on the global markets. However, Doc Papa's plans for dominating the world's business arena go awry when the island is infiltrated by undercover operatives from the Zombie Liberation Front and a rogue priestess from Doc Papa's past.
Real Voodoo and social satire collide in this gore-drenched tale of greed and global profit.

The mood in the room had gone from despondency to eager anticipation. Doc Papa shook O'Shaugnessy's hand and took the podium. "Thank you Eamonn for those insightful words. You are perfectly right of course, in everything you said. Indeed it does fall to me to reveal one of the most powerful secrets that we guard here on St Ignatius. I am talking

"We don't have time to go exploring. We need to round up the noble monsters before they come looking for us." "Wait," Tatyana said. "This is important. There's something here that can help us. I know there is." They moved into an adjacent room. "Oh shit," said Benjamin and threw up. Hanging from two rows of meat

"It has everything to do with you and me. What happened to our ancestors continues to affect us today. There was a settlement of free islanders on the south side of the island, a small fishing village where the harbour is. Toussaint was their Houngan. Mary wanted his power and tried to join his Ounfó. He resisted at first,
That's what I would sound like if I were murdered, she thought. Brigitte felt herself pulled back to her body along a path Doc Papa couldn't see. She could still see him though. She watched as he sliced the Gateway of the Souls out of Toussaint, without ever realising who he had truly killed. He held up the Gateway and let out a bitter laugh of victory. The Gateway was almost too bright to look at. It had an immense gravity that bent everything around it and seemed to refract both time and
