Description

From the author of LAST ONES LEFT ALIVE comes the story of young female warrior who must start a revolution if she and those she loves are to survive.

‘A provocative gobsmacker of a novel’ Joseph O’Connor
‘A moving, deeply feminist take on the ever-popular zombie apocalypse’ Guardian

Orpen has always been an outsider in Phoenix City – the only outsider admitted to the ranks of the banshees. As one of them, she protects the city from the skrake, the ravening creatures that have laid waste to the country outside the city walls.

Unrest is building in the city – a deadly sickness costs ever more lives, while the fighting women are increasingly wearing of enforcing the Management’s patriarchal rule.

Rumour has it that banshees have started seeking their own justice in the city. Orpen must decide — can she help to save the society that she found, or must they try to build a new one?
