OverviewA secret hidden for 80 years. A promise to a dying man. And a deadly chase with the U.S. government for the truth... Leon Aronofsky loses more than just his job after passing out at the office party. And although he'd often thought it was a strange place to work - even by the twisted standards of a London media agency - nothing could have prepared him for the shocking discovery he makes in the hidden floors below the building. Or the dead bodies. Alone in the dark, and trapped underground, Leon soon realises the agency is just a front for a secret technology project so out-of-this-world that the U.S. government wants him dead. When a dying colleague convinces Leon and Izzy Jones - the ex-physicist turned tech whizz Leon had been trying (and failing) to impress all evening - they must keep the secret safe, it hurls them into an underground world of covert organisations, paid assassins, and Silicon Valley billionaires. Armed with little more than a brutal hangover - and the vague assurances of Quinn, a shadowy American agent with questionable loyalties - can they find a way to stay alive? Who can they really trust? And how will they stop the secret from falling into the wrong hands... and still make it home in time for Friday night dinner?
