Midnight Run

Secrets and Lies

Leon Aronofsky often felt there was something going on at work that no one ever wanted to talk about - and it wasn't just the strangers lurking on the seventh floor, or the meeting room that was always broken, or even the CEO's dreadful social skills - but, as a mid-level planner at a London media agency, he was used to being ignored.

Midnight

Until one night, after accidentally passing out at an office party, Leon wakes up alone in the dark to find he's trapped in the building, and that the company he works for is actually a front for a secret technology project so out of this world that the U.S. government is suddenly trying to kill him for it. Things were finally looking up.

Run

Armed with little more than a third-degree hangover - and the vague assurances of Quinn, a shadowy American agent - can Leon find a way to keep himself and Izzy Jones, ex-physicist and part-time corporate therapist, alive? Who can they really trust? And how will they stop the secret from falling into the wrong hands, and still get to his mums in time for Friday night dinner?
