About this audiobook
In a surreal London, a poet-turned-detective infiltrates the central council of anarchists, only to discover a labyrinth of double identities and metaphysical terror. As the pursuit of the mysterious Sunday intensifies, the boundaries between order and chaos dissolve into a phantasmagoria of fear and revelation. This metaphysical thriller twists reality until the ultimate question remains: who is truly in control?
