The Patience of the Dead

On one world-shattering morning, all around the globe, everything changes.

On that day, and every day thereafter, everyone who dies opens their eyes again an hour later. These are not shambling monsters, rather they wake claiming to be the same person they were before. Many believe ‘The Returned’ are their beloved friends or relatives. More believe they are abominations which must be destroyed.

In truth, nobody knows and only one thing is certain – every day there are more of them.

“Davidson takes the zombie story and turns it on its grisly head. This is an extraordinary concept and a novel of stunning scope. It follows three connected characters as they struggle to survive in a world where the dead rise and walk. Who are these creatures and what do they want. Read the book to find out!” – Tim Jeffreys, author of The False Ones.

“The foreboding ending left me with chills!” – LoveReading Ambassador.
