'A slick, fast-paced page-turner' Guardian
The 'addictive' debut novel from Gillian Anderson, renowned and much-loved actress from Sex Education, The X-Files, and The Fall - Book One in the Earthend Saga series.
Renowned child psychologist Caitlin O'Hara is a single mum trying to juggle her job, her son, and a lacklustre love life. Her world is suddenly upturned when Maanik, the daughter of India's ambassador to the United Nations, starts having violent visions.
Maanik's parents are sure that her fits have something to do with the recent assassination attempt on her father - a shooting that has escalated nuclear tensions between India and Pakistan to dangerous levels - but when children start having similar outbursts around the world, Caitlin begins to think that there's a stranger force at work ...

Customer Reviews
Like watching an episode of the X-Files
I really enjoyed this book; it was like watching an episode (or rather a full movie) of the X-Files. The ending left me a bit lukewarm, and that’s why I haven’t given it 5*, but I have already bought the next two books in the trilogy, so I’ll be back for more soon :)
Perfect
Brilliant debut for Anderson - quite literally nailed it with this book. I can not wait to see where she goes from here. Anderson, as with everything she touches, has delivered a novel of pure gold.
