A sequel to the Dying Inside series, Dead/Alive follows the story of Lauryn and her evil eight year-old sister Christabella. Lauryn is now in control of Silent Hill while Christabella has little trace of her former strength. After Lauryn disappears, Christabella starts scheming to take back all the power that was once hers and strikes a bargain with Lenora, a powerful witch who molds and shapes the fate of Silent Hill in place of Christabella's big sister.

Lenora has an agenda of her own, a plan that centers on Hollywood actor and icon Kenneth Carter, a man who secretly harbors many torments of his own. And to rescue the one he loves, he has just stepped willingly unto the streets of damnation itself...
