Plot summary

At Lincoln High, Eddie reports to after-school detention and finds familiar faces: Janet, a cheerleader he has a crush on; Brad, a football player who bullies him and plans to join the ROTC; Jimmy, another jock; Ash, a stoner; and Willow, his best friend, a goth who shares his love of zombie movies. Ash tries to sell drugs to Mark, a quiet classmate who looks unwell. When Mrs. Rumblethorp approaches him, Mark bites her, and the group clears out of the detention room. In the corridors they discover the outbreak has already turned the rest of the student body, and the group takes shelter in the school library.
