"A quick lesson. There are two kinds of people in this world: 1. Zombies 2. Freaks. Only 2. Anyone who tells you differently is lying. That person is a lying zombie. Do not listen to zombies. Run for your freaking life. Another lesson: Everyone is born a freak...Every newborn baby, wet and hungry and screaming, is a fresh-hatched freak who wants to have a good time and wants to make the world a better place...The baby freak will grow into a kid freak and then a teen freak. That's when it gets complicated. Because most teenagers wind up in high school. And high school is where the zombification process becomes deadly." At least that's what Hayley Kincaid believes after 24 days at Belmont High School. She has been home schooled by her truck driver father, a decorated, wounded vet who has decided that it is time to settle in one place and for Hayley to attend traditional school. Her dad has serious, life-threatening issues and Hayley's life centers around him. Hayley's old friend, Gracie, and her new friend, Finn, become her lifelines in an insane existence.
(Finn is the editor of the school newspaper, Hayley's tutor, and a member and lifeguard for the swim team.)
