You've Got 24 Minutes

Eight passengers. Seven antidotes. Twenty-four minutes to decide who dies.

The last Piccadilly Line train stops in a tunnel beneath London.

The lights fail.

Every phone in the rear carriage displays the same message:

A lethal nerve agent has been released.
Seven antidote doses are available.
Eight passengers are present.
One person must be excluded.

Detective Inspector Nia Calder is trapped with seven strangers: a toxicologist who knows too much, a student who understands the system, a construction worker already showing symptoms, a barrister hiding her reasons for being there, an elderly woman with a past she refuses to discuss, a silent musician carrying a violin case, and a wealthy man determined not to become the group's sacrifice.

The doors have been sabotaged. The voting system is locked to their phones. Rescue may not arrive in time.

And someone knew exactly who would be on that train.

As the countdown falls, secrets surface, alliances fracture, and every useful skill becomes a reason for suspicion. To open the antidote case, all eight passengers must vote.

Doing nothing is still a choice.

And when the clock reaches zero, survival may be only the beginning.

You've Got 24 Minutes is a claustrophobic psychological thriller about fear, guilt, institutional power, and the terrifying question at the centre of every impossible choice:

If seven people can live only by choosing the eighth to die... who gets to decide whose life matters least?
