From NY Times and USA Today bestselling author Patricia Loofbourrow ... "... a story that is almost irresistible." SciFi and Scary Kidnapping. Murder. Betrayal. 1899 years after the Catastrophe, the steam-powered domed city of Bridges is controlled by the Mob.

Air tried to stop her sale to the Spadros crime family, and he died for it. In a city that hates her just because of where she was born, Jacqui has secretly become a private detective to earn enough money of her own to escape. But when Air's little brother goes missing, she has to decide: live with the nightmares and guilt, or defy her husband's sadistic father to save the boy? Dark, gritty, multi-layered Victorian-inspired detective neo-noir that keeps the reader guessing to the very end.
