A dark wonderland for the modern world. But down this rabbit hole is London Below, where all those who slip through the cracks end up. By helping a lady called Door, Richard - a hapless everyman - accidentally gets drawn in to this world and tags along to help her avenge her family's murder. Blending mythology with Tube names (it's no surprise there's an angel called Islington), this story conjures up a mystical place underneath our feet.
