The King of a Vacant City Simon Lennon

Overworked and unappreciated by his boss and by his girlfriend, young executive Edmund Neale wants to be left alone. One apparently ordinary Tuesday morning, he wakes up to find he is: everyone else in the city in which he lives has left. 'The King of a Vacant City' invites us to wonder how we'd behave if we thought nobody else knew what we did. How much of our lives is mindless routine? Are we still good people, when we think no one is watching? What would you do if you woke up one day to see everyone else had gone?
