The Cylume

Jaxon Leith stumbles over a bag on the stairwell of his eight-hundred storey apartment block. The clothes inside suggest it belongs to a woman, and after inspecting the contents, Jaxon deduces that she's in trouble.

Deciding to track her down, he heads out on a perilous quest through The Bleeds, to reunite the bag with its owner.

THE CYCLUME is the fourth in a series of short stories set in The Bleeds, a pre-apocalyptic, dystopian version of London, and prequel to Danny Lenihan's debut novel, ROGUE: Book 1 of The Rogue Series.
