Nonesuch

A spell-binding fantasy novel set in the Blitz, from the author of Golden Hill ...

It's the summer of 1939. London is on the brink of catastrophic war. Iris Hawkins , an ambitious young woman in the stuffy world of City finance, gas a chance encounter with Geoff, a technical whizz at the BBC's nascent television unit. What was supposed to be one night of abandon draws her instead into an odyssey of otherworldly pursuit - into a reality where time bends, spirits can be summoned and history hangs by a thread. Above the rooftops of burning London, in the twisted passages between past and present, a fascist fanatic is travelling with a gun in her hand.

Only Iris can stop her from altering the course of history forever.
