Cat Ward believes that the world punishes the weak. As a high school teacher, she has witnessed the way people exploit every vulnerability, which is why she steels herself against her class of indifferent, disruptive students-none more despicable than B Smith. Cat’s philosophy is put to the test when zombies overtake the school and the rest of London, and she must do whatever it takes to survive. But her decisions may come back to haunt when Cat encounters a nightmarish mutant clown named Mr. Dowling and the terrors that await beneath his circus big top.

Praise for Darren Shan's Zom-B series:"Shan packs in the bites, and he rips out enough entrails for even the most jaded zombie fan; the cliffhanger ending...closes on just the right note to leave the audience gnawing for more...A series opener to sink your teeth into."Kirkus Reviews
-
"A raw and deeply observant tale of a morally questionable kid trying, and usually failing, to move beyond the ingrained racism instilled by B's father. It is a brave move by Shan to posit such a bigoted hooligan as our protagonist."Booklist
-
"Character development is impressive...and Shan executes the transition from normalcy to wholesale terror masterfully."Publishers Weekly
-
"Horror with a social conscience...This compelling page-turner builds steadily to the climax then throws the reader off the cliff with a twist that is impossible to see coming."VOYA
