In a heavily guarded compound, a small group of children is being studied in a programme to discover the cure to a virus that has ravaged the globe. They are the last hope the human race has for survival. 10-year-old Melanie attends school lessons daily. Like any young girl she has a favourite teacher and a favourite subject, however, she is escorted to class in full body restraints and when they come for her, it is with guns drawn.
Melanie and her fellow pupils are second-generation hybrids - part 'Hungry', part human. But unlike first generation 'Hungries', Melanie excels in the classroom, is acutely attentive, imaginative, highly intelligent and loves her favourite teacher, Miss Justineau. Melanie's talents draw the attention of Dr. Caldwell who is searching for the key to the evolution of the virus.
When the base is overrun by Hungries, Melanie escapes with Miss Justineau, Sergeant Parks and Dr. Caldwell, who is intent on using Melanie to synthesise a vaccine. Does Melanie hold the key to unlocking a cure for the plague on course to destroy the human race?
Adapted by novelist and comic book author Mike Carey from his best-selling 2014 book 'The Girl with All the Gifts'.

Everyone thinks Brian Epstein walked into The Cavern Club on Mathew Street one afternoon and discovered The Beatles — a raw, unpolished, amateur band in a dingy basement club in Liverpool England.

The Beatles were already the number one standout group in Liverpool’s massive Merseybeat scene drawing thousands of screaming fans to their shows.
