Pomona by Alistair McDowall

I think I'd sleep a lot easier if I knew none of us would wake up tomorrow.

Ollie's sister is missing. Searching Manchester in desperation, she finds all roads lead to Pomona - an abandoned concrete island at the heart of the city.

Here at the centre of everything, journeys end and nightmares are born.

A sinister and surreal thriller from Alistair McDowall.
