Mulholland Books presents... THE REVISIONISTS
My name is Zed. I protect the Events.
This is my tenth day in Washington, 2011.
Soon, the Great Conflagration will begin...
A disgraced former spy. A grieving lawyer. A downtrodden illegal immigrant. And a time traveller whose job is to ensure that history happens as it's meant to - even when that means the end of the world.
In this riveting, mind-bending thriller, a terrifying future starts today.
In present-day Washington DC, one man knows that the world is about to end. He's there to make sure of it, in a fast-paced thriller which takes the reader into the terrifying heart of today's covert wars.

Reviews
Compelling...What really makes it work...are four very different and well-drawn characters. Via their differing perspectives on events, the novel is able to explore notions of government and ideology. * Eddie Robson, SFX *
An outstanding dystopic novel * Library Journal *
Imaginative, elegant work...What transpires in the final act is as powerful for its well-paced revelations as it is for the ethical questions it raises. * LA Magazine *
A devious and absorbing novel that challenges the reader at every turn, not letting up until the final pages. I loved it. * Olen Steinhauer *
Mullen explores the ethical implications of time travel in this excellent thriller...a one-sitting read * Publishers Weekly starred review *
Sharp as razors, savage and immense in its power and weird beauty. * Warren Ellis *
