Story Behind The Book
A school full of kids.
A mysterious yellow rain.
High school will never be the same.
They are outcasts and misfits, teenagers lost on the path to adulthood, living day-to-day inside a high school culture of taunts, humiliation, and isolation. They are the misunderstood, the neglected, and the abused. They are . . . The Lifeless.
For them, every school day is a nightmare.
But on Monday, October 2nd, they will discover the true meaning of terror.
Classes are cut short by news of explosions in the city across the river, part of a series of horrific terrorist attacks that paralyze the nation. But that is only the beginning: amber clouds fill the sky, burning rain pelts down, and the surviving students of Verlaine High learn that their tormentors have mutated into something far worse—reanimated corpses with a primordial instinct for murder.
It’s time to stand up to the in-crowd . . . or be consumed by it.
