It was just another
ordinary day at McKinley High—until a massive explosion devastated the
school. When loner David Thorpe tried to help his English teacher to
safety, the teacher convulsed and died right in front of him. And that
was just the beginning.
A year later, McKinley has descended into
chaos. All the students are infected with a virus that makes them
deadly to adults. The school is under military quarantine. The teachers
are gone. Violent gangs have formed based on high school social cliques.
Without a gang, you’re as good as dead. And David has no gang. It’s
just him and his little brother, Will, against the whole school.
In
this frighteningly dark and captivating novel, a 2012 Booklist Editor's

to be popular, they fight to stay alive.
