The Walking Dead: Dead City Official Synopsis
AMC has now released the spinoff series’ official synopsis, revealing the future of Maggie and Negan as they start their new lives in Manhattan, per ScreenRant.

The two will face new threats, from encountering a notorious killer to dealing with their personal issues after what they have been through in the past.
Read the synopsis below,
“Years have passed since we last saw Maggie and Negan and they must now form a tenuous alliance in order to accomplish a dangerous mission. Maggie and Negan journey to the island of Manhattan, which, having been isolated since the beginning of the walker apocalypse, has developed its own unique threats.
While in the city, Maggie and Negan encounter native New Yorkers, evade a marshal with a troubled past, and hunt down a notorious killer. But as the pair moves deeper into the gritty depths of the walker-infested city, it becomes apparent that the traumas of their tumultuous past may prove just as great a threat as the dangers of the present.”
