One Yellow Eye

Full of heartbreak, revulsion and black humour, a scientist desperately searches for a cure to a zombie virus while also hiding a monumental secret – her undead husband. Kesta’s life is turned upside down when her husband, Tim, is one of the last to be bitten in a zombie pandemic. A scientist by day, she spends her evenings in group therapy with others who have also lost a loved one to the virus. The country is in a period of respite, seemingly having rounded up everyone affected, and Project Dawn is working hard to find a vaccine. But Kesta has a secret. Tim may have been bitten, but he’s not quite dead yet. In fact, he’s tied to a bed in her spare room. And she’s made him a promise: find a cure, bring him back. Kesta juggles intensive work days under the microscope alongside Tim’s care, slipping him stolen drugs to keep him docile, knowing she is hiding the only zombie left – the very thing that could put everyone in danger again. But a cure seems increasingly out of reach. Plus Kesta is running out of drugs - and time. Can she save her husband before he is discovered? Or worse . . . will they trigger another outbreak? ‘Darkly comedic, gruesome and compassionate’ – Ashley Tate, bestselling author of Twenty Seven Minutes
