A London novel
When Finch, a young Romanian courier, makes what should be a routine delivery to Jonah Clay — a former barrister with reasons to fear his own past — he ends up holding an iron key that belongs to a woman he has never met: Tangent Jones, now missing.

Brief, spoiler-light
Clay recognises the key as a warning sign. Finch sees only a strange job — until the city around him begins to twist.
Following Tangent's trail draws them into a quiet network of craftworkers and conspiracies that keep London standing.
To find her, they must understand a city that is no longer behaving as it should.
Under the plot
UNIKIN is a novel about London's hidden systems: the quiet labour, informal networks, and unacknowledged craft that keep a city upright while everything above ground pretends not to notice.
It's a story about keys and thresholds, couriers and disappearances, and what happens when a city's internal logic starts to misbehave.
