The London Tube is a post-apocalyptic survival thriller set beneath the ruins of London.
On 13 October 2013, the sirens sounded across London. In the chaos of the evacuation, thirteen-year-old Harvey Hunter was separated from his father and brother at London Bridge and forced into the Underground with thousands of survivors.
Twenty-five years later, the London Underground has become the last map of civilisation: a fractured world of fortified stations, underground farms, black markets, military stockpiles, political councils and dangerous corridors.
The Story
Harvey Hunter, now one of North Greenwich’s most trusted scouts, is sent to investigate the disappearance of two couriers on a mission to Canary Wharf. What begins as a search for missing men becomes a journey through rival stations, buried secrets and the growing threat of the Iron Legion.
Led by Salim al-Kadir from King’s Cross St. Pancras, the Iron Legion believes only absolute discipline can save what remains of humanity. As the Legion expands, the fragile peace between stations begins to break.
For Harvey, the conflict becomes personal when Fiona Blackwell is captured, forcing him to choose between duty, loyalty and the dangerous truth hidden beneath London.
