Synopsis:
On a tropical vacation, Storm meets the recently widowed Alice Norton and learns that her husband died in an industrial accident on the island and his widow isn’t even allowed to view the corpse. Feeling pity for the woman, Storm pays a visit to the company that employed him. The boss, Twelvetree, seems nice enough, until Storm inadvertently learns that their newest product has a habit of killing the workers – and returning tem in a zombielike state, a fate that Jack Norton shares. Twelvetree orders his creatures to kill Storm and she is injured. After a chase, Storm finds herself in a quandary, having vowed to never kill. She prays to her goddess and an answer comes as lightning strikes down both the zombies and Twelvetree.
