Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

The game-changing young adult thriller that defies space and time, soon to be a major Netflix movie starring Oscar-nominated Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out, Black Panther).

2020: Close to getting expelled and caught up in a deadly feud, the tensions surrounding Esso seem to be leading to a single moment in a Peckham alleyway that could shatter his future.

2035: Stripped of everything, football prodigy Rhia has just one thing left on her mind - figuring out how to avert a bullet that was fired 15 years in the past.

Everything changes when Esso gains access to a mysterious world where he can see glimpses of the past and future, and when Rhia starts understanding the physics of it. The two must work together to master the secrets of the Upper World and seize control of their own destinies before it's too late.

Excellent writing and performance

What an incredible debut by Femi Fadugba and one of the best audiobook performances I’ve ever listened to. The storyline, the twists and turns even the maths kept me engaged from start to finish. I loved the contemporary references intertwined with the story - brilliantly written and definitely worthy of film or mini series adaptation!! Highly recommend!
