Mind the Gap

Two of today's luminaries of dark fantasy combine their award-winning, critically acclaimed talents in this tale of magic and adventure that begins when a young woman in London slips through a crack between our world and the one hidden beneath it. Returning to her home in London, teen Jasmine Towne realizes just how long she's been training for the moment she would be on her own. Her paranoid mother's last words, scrawled in her own blood, demand her action: JAZZ HIDE FOREVER. In this moment, the strange men who have always hung around her family's life — whom her mother called the Uncles — become starkly sinister. And they're on her trail. Seeking cover in the Underground, Jazz slips through a mysterious gate, down tunnels, and seemingly through time. Inside an abandoned city of bomb shelters and forgotten Tube stations, she finds temporary refuge with a gang of petty thieves. Flashes of the past, spectral and haunting, share the tunnels...with no regard for the living. For how long can Jazz hide from the terrors of both her worlds?
