A stunning international thriller and a wild, compulsive ride into the greedy vortex of modern life.

Imagine a drug that made your brain function to its full potential.

A drug that allowed you pick up a foreign language in a single day.

A drug that helped you process information so fast you could see patterns in the stock market.

Just as his life is fading into mediocrity, Eddie Spinola comes across such a pill: MDT-48 - a sort of Viagra for the brain. But while its benefits materialise quickly, so do certain unwelcome side-effects. And when Eddie decides to track down other users, he soon discovers that they're all dying, or already dead...

To tie-in with first publicaiton of its sequel, Under the Night, a new edition of Alan Glynn's famous debut, the basis for the #1 hit movie
