Synopsis

A thrilling debut that has been likened to John Le Carré and Raymond Chandler...

Paris, 2037. Alexandre Lamarque of the French external security service is hunting for eco-terrorists. Experience has taught him there is no one he can trust – not his secretive lover Mariam, not even his old mentor, Professor Fayard, the man at the centre of the web. He is ready to give up. But he can’t.

In search of the truth, Alex must follow the trail through an ominous spiral of events, from a string of brutal child murders to a chaotic coup in North Africa. He rapidly finds himself in a heart-thumping race against chaos and destruction. He could be the world’s only hope of preventing THE COMING DARKNESS...

“Equally good at derring-do and dialogue… Mosse displays admirable audacity. One of the best thrillers of 2022.”
THE TIMES

“Absorbing and intricately plotted.”

THE SUNDAY TIMES

"A clever, fast-paced thriller with incredible world building… an impressive debut with a cinematic narrative style waiting to be adapted for the screen."
THE INDEPENDENT

"Superb – there's an ominous drumbeat throughout, and pace and tension, and a subtle and scarily plausible dystopia – and above all there's main character Alex Lamarque, who could be one of the greats. Greg Mosse writes like John Le Carré's hip grandson.”
LEE CHILD

“This is exactly the sort of big, meaty, ambitious thriller that the market needs. I haven’t read a book like this since I AM PILGRIM.”
ANTHONY HOROWITZ
