Alice Butler has been receiving some odd messages - all anonymous, all written in code. Are they from someone at PopCo, the profit-hungry corporation she works for? Or from Alice's long lost father? Or has someone else been on her trail?

The solution, she is sure, will involve the code-breaking skills she learned from her grandparents and the key she's been wearing round her neck since she was ten.

PopCo is a grown-up adventure of family secrets, puzzles, big business and the power of numbers.

Scarlett Thomas was born in London in 1972. Her other novels include Bright Young Things, Going Out, The End of Mr.Y, which was longlisted for the Orange Broadband Prize for Fiction 2007, Our Tragic Universe and The Seed Collectors. She teaches creative writing at the University of Kent.
