This story is about a young fry cook, Cat Chambers, who becomes a superheroine almost by accident! After a humiliating run-in with the heavy-handed local police force in a Redditch-like town she decides to become 'The Light' - a fast-moving figure in black attire, who appears at night and uses blinding light to stun and shock her opponents - doing her best to free the community from its oppressors.
She is aided by two friends - Queenie Amal and Birpal Bashir, the former an ideological protestor who works with Cat in the cafe and the latter a volunteer on the very force they are fighting. The reluctant Cat finds herself encouraged by the rather more outgoing Queenie to become a full-time superheroine to avenge both them and others in the community who are suffering under the rule of the local law-enforcers, introduced by the chummy populist Hugo Pickering.
The Light is the first in a planned series documenting the struggles of the world's unlikeliest superheroine and has a humorous slant to offset the action and political comment (it was partially inspired by lockdown but also by the Brexit referendum and the subsequent split in the country), and also because there may well be a gap in the market for a British superhero series. Funny, quirky and succinct, The Light will entertain readers of any age.
