Curious Physiologies

The LineFolk of London, Book One

By: Jay Neill

Narrated by: Sarah Edwards

Hannah Chadwick is running from her past, but she just stumbled into London’s most dangerous secret.

A fierce, professional nurse, Hannah found herself unfairly blacklisted after speaking out against corporate misconduct. Desperate for work, she takes the job at a nondescript clinic just off Harley Street, treating patients with "rare conditions" for an eccentric abclynician named Julius Wayworthy.

But this isn't a normal medical practice. Hidden throughout the city, their world is defined by a mysterious energy source lurking in the tunnels of London's Tube. These are the LineFolk: thousands of creatures—from elegant haemovores to monstrous shapeshifters—who use the city’s network to conceal their true forms.

When Hannah witnesses her colleague, Axton Flynn, violently transform to save her life during a mugging. She learns two terrifying truths: she is a human working in a world of monsters, and her predecessor was brutally murdered.

Now, caught between the LineFolk’s lethal secrets and the growing curiosity of the Police, Hannah must quickly decide who she can trust. Because if Wayworthy hired her for a reason, that reason might just get her killed.

Welcome to the Underground. Don't stray from the lines.
