Series The Bone Clocks

'Power is crack-cocaine for your ego and battery-acid for your soul'

Book at Bedtime

Available for over a year

Luke Treadaway reads from The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell. He is Cambridge student Hugo Lamb - likeable, good looking, and extremely dangerous. Here he muses on the nature of power - 'Power’s comings and goings, from host to host, via war, marriage, ballot box, diktat and accident of birth, are the plot of history.'
