Young Adult Paranormal
As the fall semester ends and kids head home for winter
break, Jed and his parents gather for the annual exchanging
of gift lists. Once again, Jed asks for a dog, leading to a
heated argument and a firm "no." But when Jed spots a stray, he chases it until the dog darts
into the street where it is struck and killed by a car.
Grief stricken by what he's done, Jed cradles the dead dog
in his arms. Soon, ooze from the dog mixes with teardrops
from Jed, creating Tread the zombie dog. Finally getting his wish, Jed must convince his parents to
let him keep the undead dog. But a zombie dog turns out to
be the least of Jed's issues. It seems some parents don't
want Jed attending school with their kids. Enter the
mysterious NZN Network. They've been distributing anti-zombie propaganda in an
effort to get Jed expelled. But Jed wonders if the creation
of Tread has caused his relationship with Luke to sour. And why, just as he seems to need them the most, have his
best friends abandoned him? Could they have bought in to the
anti-zombie way of thinking? Was creating Tread a mistake
Jed will live to regret? When Tread goes missing, and with his very existence at
stake, Jed must rely on his instincts, team up with an old
nemesis, and fight for his right to have just as miserable a
middle school existence as any other student—undead or alive.
