Description

When does the cost of staying silent become greater than the price of speaking up? A desperate woman risks everything to expose the sinister company at the heart of Severance, the thrilling Apple Original series from director and executive producer Ben Stiller and creator Dan Erickson, now streaming on Apple TV+, about a daring experiment in “work-life balance.”

From the minds behind the series, this is the story of Lumon Industries employee Margaret “Peg” Kincaid. When Peg gets hired at Lumon, she undergoes Severance, a surgical procedure pitched by the company as an effortless way to separate her personal and work lives. Everyone has their reasons for wanting the easy solution Severance promises, but when Peg realizes that not all is as it seems at the company, she uncovers a reality that’s far worse than the problems she wanted to escape.

At the heart of this story, Peg’s shocking confession reveals the darkest side of corporate America. It raises a chilling question: How far will Lumon Industries go to protect its secrets?

Available for free, and exclusively on Apple Books.

    I seriously recommend if you are trying to get more answers and details about Lumon and who came before Petey and Mark. I didn’t even know I needed more info about Peggy until now. The handbook was amazing and I’ve been dying to learn more about it. I really recommend watching Severance as well.

    Since I finished Severance s1 — about 4 times — I’ve been dying to know more about the ‘Severance Universe’. Reading the Lexington Letter was an interesting supplement to aid my understanding….I mean overall, I’m still in the dark but I liked it a lot. Dying over here for s2!!

    This was a fun read! It certainly gave a lot of clarity to what was going on in the TV series that sometimes wasn’t made readily apparent. Definitely recommended if you are a fan of the TV show and want to know a little bit more about what’s going on.

    This is a brilliant, short but detailed bit of lore for the show. It made me so excited to rewatch it again! It’s a quick read, I was able to finish it on my lunch break.
