What do you do when the undead comes knocking on your door?
Play pop music for her, of course.
Katya, a grieving suburban wife recovering from trauma, is shocked, to say the least, when a shambling, mud-covered girl shows up at her home claiming she took her heart. Once she finds out the girl means her no ill will, however, they become unlikely friends.
Having lost the memories of the life that led to her untimely demise, the girl soon recruits Katya and husband Vijay in a whirlwind quest of self-discovery and revenge. And drinking. The more they learn, however, the more mysteries they uncover about the nature of her death.
Supernatural abilities aside, this conspiracy may end up with more deaths than her own.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bryant debuts with a comic zombie tale that doubles as an entertaining whodunit, blending suspenseful twists and turns with the heartfelt story of a woman finding her place in the world. Katya, a housewife recovering from a traumatic accident that ended her pregnancy and necessitated an emergency heart transplant, is shocked when an undead woman knocks on her door, claiming to be the source of her new heart. After some initial confusion, both women discover that they mean each other no harm, and the pair strike up an unlikely friendship. When it becomes clear that the undead woman has no memory of her life (though she does remember Jason Momoa and Mythbusters), Katya recruits her husband, Vijay, to help the zombie rediscover who she is and solve the mystery of her death. Bryant writes with panache, immediately drawing the reader in with his vibrant cast and gripping mystery. The horror elements, meanwhile, lead to some good jump scares. This captivating tale of redemption and revenge will win over even the most jaded genre fan.
