    In Brighton with little more than a hired car and a hangover, Aston has some hard questions to answer. For one thing, there's the matter of the dead man wanting to chat about things he can't believe, let alone understand. For another, there's the impending destruction of the solar system. All hell breaks loose in this, the final chapter of 'Electricity', a Podcasted Novel by Myke Bartlett.

    Travelling with another is never easy. Take Steven Black, the most irritating man Aston has ever met. Rather surprisingly, he's also become his best friend.

    Aston Somerfield is a professional, but this says nothing of his questionable work ethic. Rather, Aston is determined to keep things uncomplicated. No-one and nothing will touch him, not even the sudden death of a friend he barely knew. At least, that's the official story. Whether he likes it or not, fate is coming for Aston and it's about to lead him to places he never expected to go. As chaotic and random as the city it inhabits, Electricity is about to drag Aston from Australia to Seville to his Battersea Bedsit. Ultimately, he will find himself entwined in a mystery bigger than the universe itself. Being of a somewhat useless persuasion, Aston will do his very best to ignore it.
