      Vítejte. Posaďte se. Nevšímejte si potácejících se nemrtvých venku. Nechte nás vyprávět vám příběh. Ale dejte si pozor. Dobrou noc, zombie není jen tak lecjaký příběh. Je to děsivý příběh. Seznamte se s Carterem, Esme a Arnoldem, třemi žáky, kteří se náhodou ocitli zamčení v téměř prázdné škole. Nejsou přátelé. Sotva znají jeden druhého. Ale ve sklepě čeká záhadný noční hlídač. A venku se v mlze pohybují temné stíny, přikrádají se blíž a stále blíž…

      An innovative new perspective on the tragedy of teen suicide. The summer before school starts, Sam's friend and classmate Morgan Mallen kills herself. Morgan had been bullied. Maybe she kissed the wrong boy. Or said the wrong thing. What about that selfie that made the rounds? Morgan was this, and Morgan was that. But who really knows what happened? As Sam explores the events leading up to the tragedy in journal format, he must face a difficult and life-changing question: Why did he keep his friendship with Morgan a secret? And could he have done something-anything-to prevent her final actions? From James Preller, the author of Bystander, another unflinching book about bullying and its fallout. “Preller provides a rare glimpse into the mind of a bully . . . Pair this with Jay Asher's Thirteen Reasons Why.” —Booklist This title has Common Core connections.
