Annotation:
In the already stressful world of being a teenager, B Smith thought zombies were the last the thing to be concerned about.
Booktalk:
Where will YOU be when the zombie apocalypse strikes? What will you do? Most people have never seriously considered these questions, but B Smith, an average teen in London, starts thinking about them after seeing news reports of zombie attacks in Ireland.
B’s life has no need of zombies. What with having to deal with a privately abusive, racist father who happens to be a respected activist in public, and keeping up the tough-kid appearance at school. Not to mention the recurring nightmares of claustrophobia and demonic babies that sap sleep. Or the nagging feeling that the racist persona used to stay on daddy’s good side may actually be taking over who B is inside. B is worried about B.
Featuring battles of morals and ethics as well as the living against the undead, watch what happens when zombies attack B’s school and other questions must be asked: Can my choices define who I am? What am I really?
