The Radleys

The Radleys are an ordinary English family, or at least that’s what the neighbours think. Tidy homes, garden parties, respectable jobs, book clubs – no one would suspect that behind all of this, the Radleys hold a dark secret… They are vampires.

Only parents Helen and Peter know about the family’s true nature. They are ‘abstainers’, vampires who choose not to drink blood despite their natural cravings. Their teenagers, vegan Clara and lovesick Rowan, have no idea, until one evening Clara is attacked by a boy in her class and her bloodthirsty instincts take over, forcing her parents to finally reveal the truth.

“A funny, charming and wry take on the vampiric genre that does get a little bogged down with narrative weight, but is never not enjoyable as a result.” ~Claire Fulton, Loud & Clear

“The Radleys sink fangs into the vampire mythos with amusing panache.” ~Arash Nahandian, Gazettely
