The Girls Left Behind
In the wake of a deadly pandemic, three-year-old Zoey is left alone, trapped in her house, wondering why Mummy won't wake up; why Daddy never came home; why the world outside her window has stopped. But as the dead begin to rise, she won't be alone for long.
Across the country, in a rural Australian community, sisters Merry and Claire think they're saved when the capable, but controlling, Mr Blake rescues them from a frenzied 'grinner'. But when Merry discovers the price she's paid for protection, she's forced to choose between her safety and her sanity.
“Vivid, visceral, and bloody terrifying in the best way possible.”
“The dead will rise and your heart will race - The Girls Left Behind is a gut-wrenching hell ride through post-apocalyptic rural Australia”
“It gave me nightmares it was freaky as hell”
