Evil, Actually

After a bad break-up, thirty-something Londoner Chloe is struggling to adjust. But things seem to be improving when a powerful and enigmatic fashion boss offers Chloe her dream job. Never mind the slightly worrying detail that the boss claims to be the Pandora of the Greek myth, on a mission to correct that faux-pas of a few thousand years ago by putting evil back in the box.

Now tasked with finding the seven great Evils, it turns out this job is not quite what Chloe expected. Everything gets even more complicated when a mysterious advisor to the Ministry of Defence reveals a secret about Chloe’s past, and her ex also shows up again with impeccable timing.

To make matters worse, Chloe realises she is not the only one hunting down the evils. Will she find them before it's too late? and if she does, will she able to handle the truth?
