A lost river. A disembodied voice. A young man desperate to hold on to love Effra is the story of young Londoners - and lost waters. Of rivers like the Fleet, the Effra, and the Wandle that loaned their names to the London's famous streets, and run beneath them still.
It's the story of Finn, who moves into a shared flat near Brixton's Effra Rd. With a new relationship, new friends and a new job life for Finn seems suddenly bright. Yet amongst all the promise of this London summer a thread of darkness worms its way. What is driving the group of squatters that eke a living at the city's fringes? And what is the sinister sense of purpose that's begun to stir beneath them all?
Effra is about modern lives in one of the world's most ancient cities; a tale of the passion and obsession that can grip you when everything you cherish is at stake...
