About the Author

EeLeen Lee was born in London, UK, but has roots in Malaysia. After graduating from Royal Holloway College, she worked for several years as a lecturer and a copywriter until she took the leap into writing. Her fiction since has appeared in various magazines and anthologies in the UK, Australia, Singapore and Malaysia, such as Asian Monsters from Fox Spirit Books, and Amok: An Anthology of Asia-Pacific Speculative Fiction. When she is not writing she can be found editing fiction and non-fiction, being an armchair gemmologist, and tweeting at odd hours.

Editorial Reviews

"This novel zooms down a motorway at 150 miles per hour on the back of a motorbike... a strong debut from a writer I will be watching."
