When a man's name is read out to be killed, he must do everything to survive. Run is a relentless thriller from Blake Crouch, the New York Times bestselling author of Upgrade and Dark Matter.

You only have time to... run.

FIVE DAYS AGO: a rash of bizarre murders swept the country.

FOUR DAYS AGO: the murders increased tenfold.

THREE DAYS AGO: the President addressed the nation and begged for calm and peace.

TWO DAYS AGO: the killers began to mobilise.

YESTERDAY: all the power went out.

TONIGHT: they're reading out the names of those to be killed on the Emergency Broadcast System - and they've just read yours.

Praise for Blake Crouch:

'A great storyteller hitting his stride.' - Lee Child, bestselling author of the Jack Reacher novels

'Another killer read from Blake' - Andy Weir, author of The Martian

'It's clear you're in the hands of a master storyteller' - Alex Michaelides, No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Patient and The Maidens
