Hanteringen av odöda by John Ajvide Lindqvist

The novel does concern itself with Why and How this event has happened. Those that are buried have a hard time of this until the authorities figure out the parameters of the Resurrection and dig up those graves that should have the living dead in them. There are perhaps 1500 of them, and they don't try to eat the living. All the recently dead in a specific part of Stockholm at a specific time one day come back to life. Handling the Undead presents zombies in a new light. There's no shame in failing to match the earlier novel - Let the Right One In is a truly great horror novel. This time around it's zombies to not quite the same level of excellence as Let the Right One In. The first time around, Lindqvist looked at vampires with a fresh perspective.
