James Hayes (Patrick Brammall) is a small town policeman in Yoorana. He is called to the local cemetery in the middle of the night after six people have inexplicably risen from the dead in perfect health. With no memory of their identities, they are determined to discover who they are and what has happened to them. James and one of them recognise each other, and along with local doctor Elishia McKellar (Genevieve O'Reilly), James struggles to keep the case hidden from his colleagues, his family, and the world. The six people are all linked in some way, and the search begins for someone who knows the truth about how and why they have returned.
Series 1 (2015)
When Sergeant Hayes is called to the cemetery late at night he finds six naked, filthy, disoriented people. He begins an investigation to work out who they are but is shocked to discover that one of them is his wife Kate, who died two years before.
