The Nightmare Stacks (A Laundry Files Novel)

The Nightmare Stacks (A Laundry Files Novel)

The Laundry Filesâ€™ â€œfast-paced blend of espionage thrills, mundane office comedy and Lovecraftian horrorâ€ (SFX) continues as Hugo Award-winning author Charles Stross assigns a day trader to a permanent position on the night shift...

After stumbling upon the algorithm that turned him and his fellow merchant bankers into vampires, Alex Schwartz was drafted by the Laundry, Britainâ€™s secret counter-occult agency thatâ€™s humanityâ€™s first line of defense against the forces of darkness. Dependent on his new employers for his continued existenceâ€”as Alex has no stomach for predatory blood-suckingâ€”he has little choice but to accept his new role as an operative-in-training.
Â
For his first assignment, Alex is dispatched to Leeds to help assess the costs of renovating a 1950s Cold War bunker for use as the Laundryâ€™s new headquarters. Unfortunately, Leeds is Alexâ€™s hometown, and the thought of breaking the news to his parents that heâ€™s left banking for the Civil Service, while hiding his undead condition, is causing him more anxiety than learning how to live as a vampire secret agent preparing to confront multiple apocalypses.
Â
Alexâ€™s only saving grace is Cassie Brewer, a drama student appearing in the local goth festival who is inexplicably attracted to him despite his awkward personality and massive amounts of sunblock.
Â
But Cassie has secrets of her ownâ€”secrets that make Alexâ€™s nightlife behaviors seem positively normal...
