The Battle of the Ebro, the bloodiest of the Spanish Civil War, is coming to an end with thousands of casualties on both sides. Jan Lozano, a Requeté lieutenant, is captured by a Republican platoon while on a routine mission with a young driver. What seems like an imminent execution turns into an even greater nightmare when the soldiers who fell in combat begin to rise from their graves to hunt down all the living.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrapped between ideological hatred and panic, Republicans and Nationalists must overcome their differences to face a common threat: the damned who seek to drag them to hell.

Manuel Martín Ferreras succeeds in creating an oppressive atmosphere that takes advantage of the Battle of the Ebro setting to enhance the suspense, while the human conflict between Republicans and Nationalists adds a layer of depth that goes beyond simple entertainment. A recommended read for those looking for something different within the historical horror genre, with the guarantee of having been adapted for the cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PLAN B","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53406715511131,"sku":"9788418898938","price":9.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978841889893.jpg?v=1781838655","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788418898938","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
