"UNLIKE ANY OTHER ZOMBIE NOVEL I HAVE EVER READ." Horror Fiction Review
"A STYLE AND ENERGY WHICH SETS IT APART FROM THE FIELD... THIS BOOK POPS." Jay Wilburn, author of Beautiful Darkness
Imagine an eerie, parallel London living through a mysterious pandemic...
Two sisters share a traumatic childhood. They escape to build perfect lives, but then Anna's husband starts losing his mind and Claire's son violently assaults her.
On the streets, lingers a zombie pandemic known as 'the Splits'. It is made up of many shifting conditions, with no known cause or cure. A slow-burn variety deadens its victims so stealthily it is invisible until the terrible end-stage. Has this taken hold in their families?
A controversial scientist is touting a risky experimental treatment. Anna rejects it as a dangerous fantasy. But for Claire, it is her only chance to save her disintegrating son.
What happens next changes the sisters' lives forever, as they scrap and claw for one last shot at happiness.
Spanning four decades and six first-person narratives, The Splits is an epic supernatural pandemic novel with echoes of Stephen King's The Stand. Its intimate character-driven plot is reminiscent of Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale. It is also startlingly original, unlike anything you have read before.
