Book Synopsis

*An up-all-night slice of Halloween horror, perfect for fans of Stephen King, Black Mirror, and Frankenstein*

''Probes at the fears for our future and provokes the terrors of our pasts . . . terrifying'' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies

Henry, a brilliant but reclusive engineer, has achieved the crowning discovery of his career: he''s created an artificially intelligent consciousness. He names the half-formed robot William.

But there''s something strange about William.

Henry created William but he is starting to lose cont
