About the book:

THE ATTACKS WON’T STOP. NEITHER WILL SHE.

LONDON 2027.
Terrorists deploy London Black, a highly sophisticated nerve gas, at Waterloo Station. For ten percent of the population – the ‘Vulnerables’ – exposure means near-certain death. Only a lucky few survive.

LONDON 2029.
Copy-cat strikes plague the city, its Vulnerable inhabitants kept safe by regular Boost injections. As the anniversary of the first attacks draws near, DI Lucy Stone, a guilt-ridden Vulnerable herself, is called to investigate the gruesome murder of a scientist. Her investigation soon unearths the possibility that he was working on an antidote – one that Lucy desperately needs, as her Boosts become less and less effective.

But is the antidote real? And can Lucy solve the case before her Boosts stop working?

‘The Book Fairies’ event was truly a massive highlight of the London in Black launch — I loved it!’

– Jack Lutz, author of London in Black

“Her left thumb crept to her tattoo. Please let it be. It has to be. Has to. Antidote. A is for Antidote.”

– London in Black
