The internet and tabloid press are buzzing with rumours about the disappearance of the mysterious billionaire street artist Crypto, the UK's hottest property in the global art world. No new pieces have appeared in over eight months, and their publicist has released a statement that they have had no contact. The press and the public all seem to think that it is another elaborate 'art prank'.

Callie, a homeless young artist who paints under the tag 'Ghost One', aspires to make a name for herself on the London scene. Her only focus is finding a way to leave behind the dirty streets, and the dangers that lurk in places where most people never set foot. 

When her rival, the leader of the five-strong all-girl graffiti crew, The Jubilee Queens, turns up dead in an underground tunnel, bled out beneath the electrified rails, the police and coroner rule that it is a result of suicide. But then three more Queens appear on missing persons posters, and Callie knows that there must be something much darker at play. Those girls were way too in love with themselves to ever do a thing like that.

With only a can of spray paint to her name, and a desire to uncover the truth, Callie sets out on an adventure quite unlike any other.

On the flip of a coin, people die around Sin. Escaped from a lunatic asylum and haunted by his dead sister, he must find out why, and discover who is trying to use his power to destroy everything and everyone. ***** Dead, dead, dead. Say it enough times and it becomes just another word. What would you do? Could you kill a killer? Does the death of one appease the deaths of a hundred? What about that hundred against a thousand? What if you had no choice? Meet Sin. No, not that sort of sin, but Sin, crazy as a loon (you ask Sister Moon), and proud of it. Sin locks himself away in an asylum and, every so often, badboy he's believed to be, gets violent. That's only so they'll give him those nice drugs, though. The ones that help him forget. It's a pity they don't work. Sin, you see, has a serious problem. Well, it's not so much his problem, as ours - yours, mine and everyone else's. People die around Sin. He doesn't like it and there's nothing he can do about it. But someone else knows, and Sin has to stop them... and himself... Flip and catch... -- WATTY WINNER!!
