The Owner in the Mirror
The first time I saw her, she was looking at me from the surface of a spoon. I was sitting in my apartment—the one with no windows on the fourth floor of a building on the east side of Manhattan that the landlord forgot to demolish—and I was eating soup from a can I had found in the pantry behind the sink. The spoon was dirty, but I wiped it on my shirt and the reflection was clear enough....

The Blue Batch
Angelo Castellano first tasted the stuff on a Thursday night in February, in the back room of a speakeasy on Wabash Avenue where the jazz was loud enough to hide a murder and usually had to. The year was 1925, and Prohibition had been the law of the land for five years, which meant that men like Angelo — thirty-two, Italian, possessed of a square jaw and a quiet manner that people mistook for...

Tommy DeLuca was the kind of man people forgot while they were still looking at him.
He was thirty-seven in 1965, a small-time fixer with connections to the underclass in a city where the underclass stretched for hundreds of miles and included everyone from dockworkers to drug dealers to men who ran numbers operations out of basement apartments in Queens. Tommy was not smart enough to be dangerous and not dumb enough to be irrelevant. He occupied the space between—visible...

The Mercy of the Crows
The Mercy of the CrowsI.The land does not forgive. It remembers.Jasper Beauregard learned this on his third day in Delta, when he stood in a cotton field at four in the morning and felt the humidity rise off the Mississippi soil like a breath from something that was not quite alive and not quite dead, and understood for the first time in his life that he was standing on ground that had...

THE STARS OF EVELYN MARCHETTI
The funeral was over on a Thursday in November. Chicago was cold in a way that felt deliberate—as if the city itself wanted to remind us that winter was coming and nothing in your life mattered to it. I stood at the graveside in a black suit that had been my father's first and now was mine by necessity, and I watched them lower him into the ground. My father was dead. He had been dead for...

The Final Demonstration
The island of San Jude was a place where the wind never stopped screaming. It was a colonial prison, a jagged rock in the middle of a gray ocean, designed to hold the people the Empire wanted to forget. The walls were salt-crusted stone, and the only law was the whim of the Warden. Professor Julian was the same as the other prisoners—a number, a gray jumpsuit, a ration of watery porridge. But...

The Loop and the Taxi
I. Jack Kowalski drove a cab in Chicago. It wasn't much. It was a Ford Taurus with 180,000 miles on it, the heater only worked on one setting, and the meter stuck if you hit a bump hard enough. But it paid the bills, mostly. Mostly meaning: it paid the bills some months and left him picking up extra shifts at the diner on South Halsted other months. His ex-wife had the daughter. Visitation...

THE MIRROR IN THE BASEMENT
ACT I: THE WINDOWLESS ROOM Lord Alistair Finch-Worthingham inherited Blackwood Park on a Tuesday in November, which seemed appropriate: Tuesdays were the kind of days on which serious things happened—inheritances, deaths, the slow realization that one's life has been a performance for an audience that stopped watching years ago. The house was exactly as one might expect a country house named...

The Serum Protocol
I The woman who came to my office on a Tuesday in March 1947 was wearing black silk and had eyes like winter water. She sat down without being invited, placed an envelope on my desk, and told me to look inside. The envelope contained five hundred dollars and a photograph. The photograph showed a young man—dark hair, thin face, standing in front of a tenement building on the Lower East Side. He...

The Bonefire on the Bayou
IV. THE BONEFIRE ON THE BAYOU The marsh stretched to every horizon like a flat green sea, still as glass and twice as deep. Caleb Deschelles waded through it up to his waist, the water thick and warm as soup, smelling of decay and wild mint and something that might have been rot and might have been flowers trying very hard. He had been running for two days. Not exercise—running. From the Delta,...

The Geometry of Pain
(V-06: New York Modernism) Julian lived in a world of white walls and right angles. His studio in Soho was a cathedral of minimalism, where the only color was the stark contrast between the polished concrete floor and the blinding light of the gallery lamps. He was an artist of the 'Absolute,' a man who believed that beauty was not found in harmony, but in the precise measurement of agony. The...
