'An ideas swarm, to explore the everyday weirdness of the 21st century world'

Glasgow Herald

Former hit singer Hollis is down on her luck after the Crash and can't turn down the offer of a job again from mysterious global ad agency, Blue Ant. Stanley Milgrim, ex-addict freshly out of an expensive rehab paid for by Blue Ant-founder Hubertus Bigend, is also on the payroll. Bigend wants them to do some discreet research on an a secret, obscurely fashionable denim. It may not matter that they know nothing about fashion - but it does matter, at least to them, when bullets start to fly and they realize that Bigend's business obsession is leading them down a dangerous path. Set among London's dark and tangled streets, Zero History is a brilliant thriller about the webs and networks of the new century.

William Gibson termed the word 'cyberspace' in a short story before going on to write the hugely influential Neuromancer, which has sold over 6 million copies worldwide. His Bridge trilogy (Virtual Light, Idoru and All Tomorrow's Parties) is published by Penguin, as are Pattern Recognition and Spook Country which feature many of the same characters who appear in Zero History
