Synopsis
What he knows could kill him. . .
'Gripping, intelligent and stylish' Sophie Hannah
At the darkest heart of the internet lies Gomorrah.
An exclusive online market place where anything and everything is for sale: guns and porn, identities and elections, lives and deaths.
Azi Bello is nobody's idea of a hero.
From a shed in his mum's back garden in East Croydon, he spins webs in the darknet to lure evil from the shadows. Until evil comes knocking at his door in the real world, taking everything he has, sending him on the run, risking his life, offering him redemption. But at a price he never expected to pay . . .
The gates of Gomorrah have been opened. All hell is about to break loose.

Review
A techno-thriller with wit and style. It reminded me of Chris Brookmyre, and praise doesn't come higher than that. (Mick Herron)
Gripping, intelligent and stylish. (Sophie Hannah)
Punchy, powerful and one hell of a wild ride, this is thriller writing at its absolute best (Chris Whitaker)
A sharp thriller that takes us deep into the digital underworld. Taut and tense . . . a well told, fast-paced story packed with contemporary relevance (Adam Hamdy)
A tight, fast-moving thriller. Like Three Days of the Condor for the internet age (Mason Cross)
If espionage today is all about hack and counter-hack, which it clearly is, then Tom Chatfield has just written the classic twenty-first century spy thriller. Move over James Bond: Azi Bello has hacked your smartphone and he owns you. (Michael Ridpath)
Fast and funny, dangerous and blinding-bright . . . an adrenaline-rush of a book for our menacing times (Paul Cody)
a seething knot of spies, hackers, terrorists, tech and humans: absolutely brilliant. (Carl Miller)
Accomplished and chilling . . . Chatfield writes with real skill, intelligence, and, despite the grim story, humor (Publishers Weekly)
I read this from behind the sofa... I can't think of a better way to learn about hacking and the dark web . . . Halfway between a TED talk and rollercoaster! (Philippa Perry)
