Limelight

Guests arrive at Thornfield. But what is Edward hiding from Charly?
In a near-future world on the brink of societal collapse, the wealthiest 0.01% have retreated into luxury bunkers. These high-tech fortresses boast swimming pools, cinemas, and hydroponic farms, but their inhabitants live in a bubble of paranoia and control. Charly takes a job tutoring the children of reclusive billionaire Edward in his doomsday bunker. But when strange things start happening, it seems dark secrets are buried in this vast bunker too.
In the real world, the super-rich are already building bunkers ready to provide sanctuary from the apocalypse. In Chloë Myerson claustrophobic thriller, we ask: what happens next?

1968. LBJ is running out of time. Having abandoned his own re-election campaign, the President turns to the one achievement that might redeem his final months in office: peace in Vietnam. But as the US election tightens, the CIA begins to pick up signs that Nixon’s campaign may be using secret back channels to keep South Vietnam away from the negotiating table. For LBJ, it could destroy his final hope of peace. For Richard Helms and Eloise Page, it is a dangerous collision of espionage, democracy and power.
