Doom Watcher: He imagined America's worst nightmares. Now someone is making them real

Joshua 'Mitch' Mitchell used to write movies. Now he writes disasters.

As a government ‘doom watcher’, Mitch is paid to dream up the worst things that could happen: terrorist attacks, infrastructure failures, pandemics, mass-casualty events. Every nightmare scenario is locked away offline in the Black Room - along with the countermeasures designed to stop them.

Then Mitch misses a flight, returns to the office after hours, and witnesses armed intruders stealing the files.

Within hours, a security guard is dead, Mitch is framed for murder, and one of his own scenarios is already unfolding. Someone has America’s worst nightmares in their hands - and they’re testing them.

With the police hunting him, his boss lying to him, and a mysterious stranger warning him to run, Mitch has only one advantage: paranoia is part of the job. To stop the next attack, he’ll have to think like the people using his plans against him.

Because the worst-case scenario isn’t coming.

It’s already begun.
