The accident was tragic, bloody, and horrific, claiming the life of a beautiful young sorority girl. Nicole was a straight-A student, sweet-tempered, all-American, and a virgin. But it was an accident. And that was last year. Its a new semester, a fresh start. Craig, who was not charged with murder, is focusing on his classesand on avoiding Nicoles sorority sisters, who blame him for her death even though the police did not. Perry, Craigs roommate, is working through his own grief (he grew up with Nicole, after all) by auditing Professor Polsons sociology class: Death, Dying, and the Undead. Mira has been so busy with her twin babies that she can barely keep herself together to teach her class, Death, Dying, and the Undead. And Shelly has given up calling the newspapers to tell them that, despite the lake of blood in which they keep reporting Nicole was found, the girl Shelly saw that night was not bloody, and not dead.
