A quick read that had an interesting perspective on where technology and social networking might be taking us, with a little mystery and adventure thrown into the mix. Overall, a fun little romp.
Eighteen-year-old Jake Thames gets together a crew of urban explorers (who are addicted to finding ways into places they weren’t meant to go) to travel with him into the abandoned “ghost stations” of the London Underground. The other guys are there for the thrill, but Jake is doing this for other reasons. He is curious about his father (Mike Thames) who went missing, maybe in the London Underground. Jake is trying to find out what connections/secrets involve his family history to the London Underground. What will he discover?
This was a really good follow-up to David Wailing’s connected short story “Signal Failure”. I enjoyed the setting (the London Underground) and I learned a lot about it in this book. The story was tense and captivating. The book had two timelines that were easy to follow. I really enjoyed Mike’s story, with his letters to his son, and the letters Mike received from his own father.
A fascinating and intriguing read.… (more)

Pretty good short story about a group of people who get stuck in the London Underground tube train at night… All the train doors open up, the tunnel is dark and claustrophobic, the electricity goes off. What happened to driver? What is out there in the dark? Eerie and captivating.

Went into this one blind without reading the blurb or knowing the author and what a pleasant surprise. Well written and witty with interesting characters and a decent plot. Loved all the pop culture references that are littered throughout. Would definitely recommend this one
