Product Description
After Dark
Author: Jayne Cowie
Format: Paperback
**Adapted into the Paramount+ series Curfew**
Welcome to a World Where Women Hold the Power.
They dominate workplaces, public spaces and government.
They are no longer afraid to cross a dark car park, catch the last train, or walk home alone.
With the Curfew law in place, all men are electronically tagged and must stay at home after 7pm.
It changed things for the better. Until now.
A woman is murdered late at night and evidence suggests she knew her attacker.
It couldn't have been a man because a Curfew tag is a solid alibi... Isn't it?
'An original, if unsettling, debut' — The Sun
'So timely, so relevant and so remarkably written, it's going to live with me for some time to come' — John Marrs, #1 bestselling author of The One
