I have always had a soft spot for flawed characters but I think Borland is the character that made me realize it's not just the flawed hero I like it's especially the not a hero, just a mess of a guy who has the bad habit of surviving, it was nice to revisit him.

If you think a zombie adjacent story paired with something of a procedural action drama with a splash of bloody work politics featuring a fat, constantly in pain, alcoholic, grump who has been pulled from retirement for a main character sounds like a good time you'll probably like that one too.
