*Predator* is the sixteenth episode of the third season of QIA.

## Summary

The net continues to close around the London Hub and its people.

## Blurb

"At some point within the next twenty-four hours, London is going to face an even worse attack than yesterday, at the hands of a Pariah." - Tasneem Hafiz

Prometheus. The Linearists. Cameron Campbell. The police. Fran Grenouille. And now a Pariah. As the situation in London continues to escalate to deadly new levels, the team begin to crack. Can a last-ditch effort from QIA Agents Sarah Cunnington and Carlos Sánchez - who has his own dangerous agenda, still as yet unknown to anyone else at the Hub - save the day?

## Synopsis

In Valencia, Lucita Cadamon and Anatole Mathieu investigate the abduction of her daughter, Bella Romero.

In London, while the team scramble to deal with the fallout of the Bath mission, the subsequent St Paul's bombing and the outrage of the surviving Linearists, they must also deal with their captive, Bella Romero. Meanwhile Cameron Campbell is also plotting the London Hub's downfall, with some of the most unexpected allies and means.

After Ethan receives an alarming warning from the future, the team face another priority - locating Bridget Stanton to stop a Pariah attack in London. With all this happening, Carlos continues to find himself under pressure from Claudia and Arvin Costlemach to deliver, which will mean betraying the QIA and using a woman he knows to have feelings for him.

As the Prime Minister orders the arrests of Hafiz, Ethan and Iulya, the Captain attempts to flee the country with her family while Ethan and Iulya continue to track down Bridget. Hafis is arrested before she reaches the airport, and Ethan and Iulya are as well, though not before Bridget is found and brought to 2022.

While Campbell's plans reach fruition, Zoey chooses which side she is on, leading to her resignation.

Sarah pretends to be Fran Grenouille in order to get information out of Bridget - and everyone is horrified when they discover the Pariah's target.
