Description
In the late 1990s, a laptop was found in a service station just outside of Manchester. It contained a digital journal entitled “TO THE FINDER: OPEN NOW TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE!” Now, for the first time, that infamous diary is being published in its entirety.
——————————————————————————-
It’s 1998. The internet age is still in its infancy. Google has just been founded. Eighteen-year-old supermarket shelf-stacker Nigel Carmelite has decided that he’s going to become a vigilante.
There are a few problems: how is he going to even find crime to fight on the streets of Derbyshire? How will he create a superhero costume—and an arsenal of crime-fighting weaponry—on a shoestring budget? And will his history of blackouts and crippling social inadequacy affect his chances?
This is Nigel’s account of his journey: part diary, part deluded self-help manual, tragically comic and slowly descending into what is arguably Luke Smitherd’s darkest and most violent novel.
What do you believe in? And more importantly . . . should you?
