A chilling young adult graphic novel about a group of teenage sleuths as they uncover the mystery behind a missing corpse reanimated by AI
Some feelings just can’t be buried . . .
Wallflower Mina Murray can’t escape the torment of competition. Her band, the Romeros, are primed to go far in the Battle of the Bands, which would be great if Mina could play it cool while performing. As if that wasn’t enough, she’s reporting New Whitby High’s first ever Game Jam, where emotions run high when it’s revealed the school’s elite coder Mariam “Mary” Franjieh will be competing.
Things come crashing down when Mina’s bandmates, Arthur, Jon, and Quinn, win the Game Jam by cheating, and—in the aftermath—ice out their drummer, Jean, and band manager, Lucy. Suddenly, Mina finds herself stuck in the middle of the Romero’s massive blowout . . . and in the crosshairs of Mary’s ire.
Tired of being overlooked, Mary vows to demonstrate the true scope of her talent, uploading her AI program to a cadaver . . . and bringing him back to life. But when the body disappears, Mary fears what she’s unleashed upon New Whitby.
With the monster stalking all who cross his path, it’s up to Mina, Lucy, and the Romeros to track down the living corpse. But to subdue the failed creation, Mina will need the other teens to push past their hurt and work together. Otherwise, he will execute his murderous program . . .
Full of scares, thrills, and emotionally moving, this graphic novel is a modern spin on the classic horror novel Frankenstein.
