One Yellow Eye
UK Edition

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.
