Description

In a world ravaged by a fungal plague that transforms its victims into ravenous, mindless creatures, a small group of survivors clings to existence in a military bunker. Their hope rests on a unique group of children, each infected but retaining their intellect and humanity, who are subjected to brutal experiments. Among them is Melanie, a bright and curious girl who forms a special bond with her teacher, Miss Justineau, unaware of the true nature of her condition or the devastating choices that lie ahead. As the outside world collapses and the infected hordes grow, Melanie's extraordinary abilities may be the key to humanity's survival, or its ultimate downfall.
