A story of a young financial worker in riot stricken London

Set on the penultimate day of the 2011 England riots, as widespread looting is raging across London’s inner-city boroughs, a fearful banker awakens from his nightmare of being chased by angry rioters and nervously makes his way towards the untouched calm of the City. Yet here, whilst he finds safety in numbers within the financial bubble, his sense of individuality is suddenly lost in the corporate environment, and like the rioters elsewhere, he is overcome by their desires of adrenaline, greed and empowerment.
