The Dying Light

The Dying Light

When the heads of government and big business gather in a small Welsh town for the funeral of former public servant David Eyam, waning bells ring for David's old friend and former spook Jessica Lockhard, who recognises a conspiracy when she sees it. It seems Eyam has bequeathed a devastating legacy that many are desperate to suppress and, finding herself the focus of the state's paranoiac gaze in a Britain with diminishing civil liberties, Jessica must use the tricks of her former trade to bring about justice.

Henry Porter is the editor of UK Vanity Fair a civil liberties campaigner. In 2006 he took on Tony Blair in a series of open letters in The Guardian. Henry lives in London.
