Kaylee was just another outcast. She was never part of the in crowd, in fact she never even really had a "crowd", let alone friends. At home things weren't much better either. With only an abusive and alcoholic mother to keep her company, Kaylee has learned the under appreciated art of blending into the background to a t. But one day, our heroine stumbles upon a closely guarded secret that will change her world, forever. And this secret will show Kaylee that not only is she different, she is extraordinary.

Their job: take down those who threaten the few remaining members of the human race. But what happens when Kit herself is infected? What happens when she finds out that the undead aren't what they seem?
