Details

When American teenagers die, some of them don't stay dead. No one is sure why, and this strange phenomenon has led to a growing population of "living impaired" teenagers who walk, slowly, down the halls of American high schools. Sixteen-year-old goth girl Phoebe is fascinated with Tommy Williams, the undead leader of the town's "differently biotic" kids. But not everyone is so happy with the idea of living with "dead" people. Soon Tommy and his friends begin to face serious threats, and Phoebe is caught in the middle.

Oakvale High’s progressive attitude toward the “living impaired” has made it a magnet school for the undead. Now the undead are trying out for the football team and attending school dances—and Phoebe finds herself attracted to Tommy, one of the more active zombies. But the undead have no rights—and no protection from the law. Some people, like Pete Martinsburg, would like to send them back to their graves—even if their traditional living friends get in the way.
