The action-packed and horrorful zombie adventure from

debut author Alice Nuttall, with an original environmental twist

. . .

In a world without bees, death-flies are needed to grow food.

But death-flies need bodies – lots of them. And bodies mean

zombies.

Merian understands this, but others are afraid. Can one girl prove

that zombies are the future?

The action-packed debut novel of MSLexia Children’s

and YA 2023 winner, Alice Nuttall.

An original idea that turns the usual zombie story on

its head – save the zombies, don’t kill them!

With environmental themes packaged alongside age-appropriate

horror and scares.
