Description

Zero History - a gripping technothriller from William Gibson, the bestselling author of Neuromancer

Hubertus Bigend, the Machiavellian head of global ad-agency Blue Ant, wants ex-musician Hollis Henry to uncover the maker of a secret, obscurely fashionable denim called 'The Gabriel Hounds'. Hollis knows nothing about fashion - which, curiously, is why Bigend hired her. Soon, though, it's clear that Bigend's interest in underground labels might have sinister applications. Powerful parties, who'll do anything to get into this territory, are showing their hand. And Hollis, as Bigend's representative, is about to find herself in the crossfire.

Set among London's dark and tangled streets, Zero History is a brilliant thriller about the hidden webs and patterns that underlie the new now.

'Smart and seductive, inventive. Gibson is having tremendous fun' Independent

'An ideas-swarm, coated with a hipster glaze . . . to explore the everyday weirdness of the twenty-first century world' Herald

'Gibson's writing is thrillingly tight' Scarlett Thomas, New York Times Book Review
