thoroughly absorbing page-turning narrative.' SUNDAY TIMES 'Genuinely thrilling.' DAILY
TELEGRAPH _____________________________________ Dusk is gathering as a young priest
Christopher Fairfax rides across a silent land. It's a crime to be out after dark and Fairfax
knows he must arrive at his destination - a remote village in the wilds of Exmoor - before
night falls and curfew is imposed. He's lost and he's becoming anxious as he slowly picks his
way across a countryside strewn with the ancient artefacts of a civilisation that seems to have
ended in cataclysm. What Fairfax cannot know is that in the days and weeks to come everything
he believes in will be tested to destruction as he uncovers a secret that is as dangerous as
it is terrifying ... _____________________________________ '[Harris] takes us on a thrilling
ride while serving up serious food for thought.' SUNDAY EXPRESS 'A truly surprising
future-history thriller. Fabulous really.' EVENING STANDARD 'The book's real power lies in its
between-the-lines warning that our embrace of the internet represents some kind of sleepwalk
into oblivion. It's a provocative tub-thumping sci-fi of which H. G. Wells might have been
proud.' DAILY MAIL 'Harris' latest work intelligently warps historical fiction and tackles
issues of religion science and the apocalypse in the process. As he flexes his imagination
you will be left pondering as often as you are page-turning.' HERALD 'A brilliantly imaginative
thriller' READER'S DIGEST NOW PRE-ORDER ROBERT'S NEW THRILLER V2 - COMING AUTUMN 2020
