The Chair Man

by Alex Pearl

Michael Hollinghurst is a successful corporate lawyer living a comfortable, suburban life in leafy North West London.


But on 7 July 2005, his life is transformed when he steps on a London underground train targeted by Islamist suicide bombers.


While most passengers in his carriage are killed, Michael survives the explosion but is confined to a wheelchair as a result.
