foreword by Peter James

Andy Briggs

A top-secret department housed in a small office hidden away in a Whitehall back alley, Room 801 is so secret that it doesn’t officially exist.

DC Ophelia Cross watched a suspect lifted into the sky. Finn Locke was a hacker until one experience cost him everything. They’re recruited to Room 801, a Whitehall department that monitors the unusual.

A rural crime in a sleepy village reveals figures watching from the shadows. Lights over the fields aren’t drones. Even notorious local criminals are worried.

Room 801 isn’t hiding the truth.

It’s losing control of it.

THE HOOK: Slow Horses meets The X-Files. A secret Whitehall department, so secret it doesn’t officially exist, investigates UFOs, cryptids and the paranormal across Britain. (A real one does exist.)

TIMELY: Congressional hearings on UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) have made the subject mainstream news in the US.

FOREWORD BY PETER JAMES: The bestselling crime author introduces the series.

SCREEN PEDIGREE: Andy Briggs is a screenwriter who has worked on projects for Syfy, Netflix and Amazon.
