Description
Lexicon: A cerebral thriller that combines searing intelligence with dark humour and breakneck pace. When words are used as weapons, the consequences can be deadly. A young woman named Emily Ruff is recruited for her exceptional linguistic skills, but she soon finds herself in grave danger. Meanwhile, a man named Wil Parke struggles to recall his past after surviving an event that should have been fatal. Now, he's being hunted, and the reason behind it remains a mystery. At the heart of this gripping story lies a single word with the power to kill. Those who possess it will stop at nothing to reclaim it, putting Emily and Wil in their sights.
