The Luminous archivePart Victorian thriller, part contemporary tale of sisterhood and rebellion, a time-travelling, genre-busting play. As protestors gather outside the hospital where they work, three women meet up for a monthly book club. This month's book is 'Luminous' - a dark delve into Victorian London, where lurid stories are brought to life for entertainment in the penny gaff theatres: tales of an anonymous killer haunting the city and women whose bones glow through their skin. In the twenty-first-century living room, the wine is flowing and the discussion is getting heated. Mighty thinks the book is outrageous, Mags thinks it's the best thing she's ever read, and Alice hasn't got past page three. As the women get drawn deeper into the story, memories surface, unexpected connections are made, and the worlds begin to blur.
