Lord of the Flies with zombies . . . tons of nail-biting action!’ Rick Riordan, author of the Percy Jackson series

The child in the video was terrified. Within days it had gone viral. Then the internet stopped working . . . and they realized something was seriously wrong.

The sickness struck everyone over fourteen. First it twisted their minds. Next it ravaged their bodies. Now these zombies roam the streets, crazed and hungry.

Jack and Ed are survivors, determined to return home to London. Clinging to memories of the past, they join a mismatched group of kids on the road, and one adult, a butcher called Greg, who claims he is immune to the disease.

But, when a devastating new threat comes to light, they realize not all of them will make it out alive this time . . .

Don’t miss the next book in this edge-of-your-seat series: The Fear.
