LEIGH RADFORD
"Compulsively readable. A propulsive, page-turning descent into all that is lovely and grotesque about grief, obsession, and love."
Olivie Blake, New York Times bestselling author of The Atlas Six


One Yellow Eye is a heartrending and darkly humorous novel about the desperate measures we take to keep the ones we love alive.
In the aftermath of a zombie epidemic, brilliant biomedical scientist Kesta Shelley is struggling to return to normal. Her friends and colleagues are becoming concerned about her inability to move on and her obsession with her work.
Unbeknownst to them, Kesta is conducting her own medical experiments in the spare bedroom of her flat, where her husband Tim lies chained to a radiator, the only zombie remaining.
​
Kesta will risk everything, including another outbreak, to bring Tim back from the undead.
"One Yellow Eye is a quietly momentous novel written with a literary flair that belies its debut status. It is a story that seeks to capture the irrevocable change wrought by love and the horror of losing that love."
Katie Fraser, THE BOOKSELLER
