A brilliantly funny apocalyptic LGBTQ+ love story from a new talent. Mel finds herself marooned after the apocalypse with her true love's boyfriend and school bully Ella - a complete disaster, she thinks – but her love-life turns on its head in the most extraordinary way (if she survives the apocalypse, that is).
Mel is the only 'out' lesbian at school and desperately loves Sasha but her feelings aren't reciprocated - so when she becomes stuck in a mansion with only Dorian and school bully Ella for company, her survival relies on these two - will she ever see Sasha again, or will love appear from an unexpected source...?
Mel loves Sasha and dreams of a day that Sasha might reciprocate her feelings (even though she's straight) - so the fact that it's thirty degrees outside in January and hasn't rained for a year simply passes her by.
Mel is just about coping with being the only 'out' lesbian in school and all the sniping that Janis and Ella aim her way, as well as her dreary Saturday job with the stupidly posh Dorian... But when domestic animals suddenly lethally turn on the human race, and Mel finds herself stuck in a mansion with Dorian and Ella, her love-life suddenly turns on its head in the most extraordinary way.
A screamingly funny LGTBQ+ love story from a brilliant new talent.
