But then a mugging on her commute ends in disaster and Chloe discovers she is the Pandora. Yes, of the Greek myth. Reincarnated in modern-day London.To make matters worse, she makes the dubious acquaintance of the legendary Great Evils, and they are . . . not quite what she expected.Now forced into a wary alliance, including with the Ministry of Defence, Chloe realises that something far more dangerous is at play.
