ABOUT THE AUTHOR

    AMY GARVEY is a former editor who now works on the other side of the desk as an author. She grew up reading everything she could get her hands on, watching too much TV, and wishing she was Samantha Stephens from Bewitched. (She still wishes that, actually.) COLD KISS is her first novel for young adults, but she’s always writing something (when she’s not obsessively discussing TV’s Supernatural with her friends online and thinking about cupcakes). She lives in West Chester, Pennsylvania, with her family. You can read Amy’s blog at www.amygarveywrites.blogspot.com and follow her on Twitter @amygarvey.

NOTES

    MY ZOMBIE, SUCH AS HE IS, ISN’T GEORGE Romero’s, as you probably figured out. He’s closer to the kind of zombie you might create with Haitian vodou magic, a corpse reanimated and then controlled by a sorcerer. That said, with a few minor exceptions, almost everything in this book is straight out of my imagination. I took liberties with the geography of the town where I went to high school, and made up a bunch of stuff out of whole cloth because in fiction, that’s allowed, for which I’m grateful. Resemblances to any people living, dead, or undead are only a coincidence, except for the Brobecks’ song “Visitation of the Ghost,” which I adore.
