Quarantine: The Loners by Thomas Lex
It’s Wil’s first day of high school in a brand new building and he can’t wait for a new start.  He knew the first day would be exciting, but he never expected a wing of the school to be blown up and half of the faculty and students to die.  Now Wil and his older brother David are locked under quarantine in the building because a deadly virus has infected the school.  Do they join forces with the jocks, the nerds, or are they just loners?  How do they survive and, more importantly, how do they get out?
Read The Loners and the term “surviving high school” will have a whole new meaning to you…
