Things start out alright. In an attempt to get the generator discovered in Volume 4 working, Rick and the survivors decide to syphon some gas from cars parked outside of the prison. The plan seems to be working, but Rick and Glenn see a helocopter in the sky. The helicopter crashes, and they decide to try to find it (with some help from Michonne). They arrive at the helicopter's crash site just before dark. There are no people present, but they see a lot of footsteps. Having come this far, they decide to continue on in an attempt to find wherever the footsteps came from, reasoning that there must be more survivors around. They find them and are welcomed into the community by the governor. Unfortunately that welcoming isn't exactly warm.
As I said above, this volume has some nasty, nasty things in it. The governor is not someone you want to cross. And he knows they must have come from close by, having reasoned that they arrived on foot without supplies. He wants to know where they've come from and he has every intention of finding out, no matter what the cost.
Despite the nastiness, I did enjoy reading this volume (a lot more than Volume 4). I'm actually quite excited to see what happens in Volume 5 (which I luckily also have and can read right now!)
