Description

A devastating epidemic turns London into a graveyard of unanswered questions, and British scientist Kesta Shelley—more comfortable with microbes than people—finds herself fighting a cure while keeping one impossible secret: her undead husband. As her work in the hospital’s triage and pathology labs collides with the creeping deterioration of Tim, Kesta’s devotion deepens into obsession, forcing her to choose between public safety and the love she refuses to let die. Blending a fresh, intimate take on the zombie mythos with sharp scientific detail and mounting dread, this story explores grief, loyalty, consent, and the moral cost of playing god. Leigh Radford delivers a tense, character-driven narrative where every experiment has consequences—and every attempt to save someone may end up spreading the infection further.
