Sympathy for the Devil

The government has fallen and British Nationalism is on the rise. The country needs a saviour who can bring power and control back to the people. And all Lucy wants, after a lifetime of serving Baroness Margaret Thatcher, is to retire, have a nice sit down, a cup of tea and a biscuit. As the country descends into chaos, Lucy is visited by demons seeking something that holds the key to solving the crisis. But Lucy has forgotten who she is and what it is they want. The country needs a hero, but Lucy is 68 years old, and wants to run away from it all. What can a little old lady do in such circumstances? And will the country get the hero it wants - or the anti-hero it needs? Sympathy for the Devil is an urban fantasy. It's set in a world somewhere between Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere and The Thick of It. There are mad clowns, angry dragons, ancient queens, sexy demons and evil politicians at every turn. And a little old lady called Lucy, and her pet cat Sam.
