Kit Burgoyne (pen name of Booker-listed novelist Ned Beauman) is a startling new voice in horror: witty and appalling, equal parts H.P. Lovecraft and P.G. Wodehouse.
For months, Luke and his underground revolutionary group have been planning their biggest operation yet: kidnapping 23-year-old heiress Adeline Woolsaw. They don't want a ransom they just want to draw attention to the Woolsaw Group, the source of Adeline's parents' enormous wealth, a vast yet largely anonymous company that runs everything from military bases and mental hospitals to commuter trains, call centers, and prisons.
But the revolutionaries get a shock when they bundle Adeline into their van. She's about to give birth. And she may not mind being kidnapped, if it allows her and the baby to escape the grips of her controlling parents.
It quickly becomes apparent that this is no ordinary child. He's capable of setting off deadly weather events and summoning plagues of vermin. And that's just the beginning. Luke discovers that Adeline's parents had arranged the pregnancy as part of a dark bargain that links the baby to an ancient evil of nearly limitless power. And the Woolsaws and their agents will stop at nothing to get the infant back, and establish a new infernal kingdom on Earth, with their grandchild installed on the throne.
