A story of revenge, and a startling and powerful vision of London in the near future from the Costa-shortlisted author of THE CARBON DIARIES 2015.
Anthony Griffin is an ordinary kid caught up in a dangerous world. The boundaries between real and virtual are more and more blurred, and when Anthony's girlfriend is taken out in a gang hit, he has to venture into the underground world of the Drop to flush out her killer and bring him to justice.
This is the story of a boy whose girl is worth more than money.
