Middle school seems like a fight to survive for most students. There's a sense of freedom, a sense of fear, and a sense of resentment stemming from trying to navigate a world that seems to want to tear them apart. Teachers seem to be oozing with resentment, blinded by their drive to make students more like them.
Vic and Flo are two besties on the verge of the biggest test of their young lives as a spirit week assembly turns deadly when students are attacked by zombified teachers. They find themselves embarking on a pass-fail test to escape and find answers.
Along the way they meet more young survivors: C.J, Connor, Izzy, and Leanne. As they travel together piecing together clues hidden in their survival stories, one thing becomes clear: zombies aren't their only obstacle.
As they travel in search of supplies and somewhere to call home, they push to find answers about the hordes. What makes the zombies blind? Why do they all look like they're sweating? How does the infection spread?
The one question they can't answer is: what started it all?
