About this listen
It's the hottest summer on record and London is dying. Prices are high, pay is low, and stressed commuters are packed onto London Underground trains again like the pandemic never happened. To add to the misery, the temperatures underground just keep climbing and climbing, the heat trapped in the clay with nowhere to go.
Then one fateful morning five travellers on an unlucky tube carriage find themselves bound together as witnesses to a single horrific event - an event they can't quite seem to remember.
They make an unlikely team - a weary tube driver, a disillusioned civil servant, an ambitious city trader, an overwhelmed hotel worker, and an unhoused young man just trying to get by - but now they must come together to confront what they have seen and stop it in its tracks before it kills them all.
From the dark and twisted mind behind Thirteen Storeys, Family Business, and podcast sensation The Magnus Archives, The Burn Line is a sinister and socially conscious horror masterclass perfect for fans of Stephen King, Jordan Peele, and Black Mirror.
Critic reviews
Jonathan Sims' The Burn Line combines the best of British class satire with real grindhouse fun. You will laugh, you will cry, you will gnash your teeth with righteous indignation, but most of all you will root for this ragtag gang of underdogs on their literal descent into a modern hell of the London Underground to face off with the demons you wouldn't expect. Kind Hearts and Coronets meets The Midnight Meat Train! (Bitter Karella, author of MOONFLOW)
Rich, character-driven and very scary, The Burn Line is a master-class in sweaty urban horror. Read it on your next shadowy subway ride through the underground and try not to feel like something is watching you from the tunnels (Trevor Henderson, author of SCAREWAVES)
Jonathan Sims breathes life into a found family worth rooting for and a mysterious menace worth losing sleep over. The Burn Line is an immersive fever dream that drags you into the depths of a subterranean hell and leaves you gasping for fresh air (Brian McAuley, USA TODAY bestselling author of BREATHE IN, BLEED OUT)
