THE GIRL IN THE CELLARTHE GIRL IN THE CELLARCecilia Duval married Gabriel LeFleur because he was the only man who looked at her the way she wanted to be seen. This was not, in hindsight, a prudent criterion for selecting a husband, but Cecilia was twenty-two years old and living in a French Quarter mansion that had once belonged to her grandmother, and in that house, surrounded by the ghosts of a family that had...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 9 Ansichten 0 BewertungenBitte loggen Sie sich ein, um liken, teilen und zu kommentieren!

I was twenty-nine when I finally understood what had happened to my father, and even then, understanding didn't bring him back.George Malone was what they called him -- Buddy to everyone who knew him, and everyone in the warehouse knew him. He worked the night shift at the grain silo on the South Side, carrying sacks of wheat on shoulders that were too broad for any normal man but somehow appropriate for a man who moved through the world like a bear through a meadow -- slowly, deliberately, with a kind of unconscious...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 11 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Iron Crown of DendralThe thing wrapped in lead cloth smelled of old copper and something sweeter, like roses left too long in a sealed room. Arthur Blackwood found it beneath a floorboard in the forge basement, where the damp had swollen the wood and loosened its nails. He was nineteen, slight of frame but broad-armed from years at the anvil, and he had learned by then to trust his nose above all else. The smell...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 5 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Sterling AlgorithmIn the glass towers of New York, power is not inherited; it is engineered. Maximilian Sterling had engineered the most powerful asset management firm in the world, a machine that could predict market crashes and manufacture fortunes. He was the architect of the new world, a man who believed that human emotion was simply a noise in the data. Dominic, the CEO and son-in-law, was the perfect...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 6 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

Neon ShadowsLos Angeles was a city of electric lies. Under the relentless glare of the neon signs, the truth was something that only existed in the shadows, and in the shadows, everything had a price. Victor Thorne had spent forty years building a kingdom of silence. As a retired titan of the city's underground trade, he knew where every body was buried and which judges were on his payroll. He lived in a...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 8 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Rust King(Act I: The Iron Grip) The town of Oakhaven did not breathe; it wheezed. The air was a thick soup of sulfur and oxidized iron, and the only thing that grew in the soil was resentment. Leo was a man of the assembly line, a cog in a machine that had stopped producing anything but misery. He lived in a trailer that smelled of damp cardboard and old grease, his days measured by the rhythmic thud of...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 6 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Dark Forest Files**Los Angeles, 1947** The rain hadn't stopped for three days. It hammered the window of my office on Sunset Boulevard like it was trying to get in, or maybe trying to keep whatever was inside from getting out. I was nursing a whiskey that tasted like it had been distilled in a garage, and waiting for a woman who probably wasn't going to show. She never does, I thought. That's why I'm the...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 7 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Starlight ProjectThe watch had stopped at 4:19 on a Tuesday that had not yet arrived. I first noticed it in Florence, three weeks after I woke up in a hospital bed with a heart attack that hadn't happened yet. The smartwatch—my Apple, still charged, still connected to nothing—displayed a date that made no sense: October 19, 2029. Black Tuesday. The day the markets would crash, the day I would lose everything,...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 6 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Black SignalThe signal came through at 2:17 AM on a Thursday, and Jack Morane was drunk. He worked the graveyard shift at KLA-7, a small radio station in downtown Los Angeles that broadcast old standards and used car commercials between midnight and six. Jack's job was simple: make sure the equipment didn't catch fire, change the records when the automated system glitched, and keep his eyes open well...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 5 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

Whispers on the EstateThe heating in tower block seven broke on a Tuesday in November. By Thursday, the flat was cold enough that Sarah Murphy could see her breath indoors. She pulled her coat on inside and wrapped a blanket around her shoulders like a shawl and tried not to think about the bottle of whiskey in her cupboard. Manchester in 2008 was a city that had forgotten how to pretend. The financial crisis had...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 6 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Black BadgeThe rain in Los Angeles doesn't wash things clean. It just makes the dirt slicker. I was sitting in my office on Sunset Boulevard, watching the water trace ugly paths down the single window, when the door opened without my permission. She walked in like she owned the building, which in this town was basically the same thing. She was wearing black. Not mourning black—operating black. The kind...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 7 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen

The Signal Operator**Queens, New York** The coffee machine in the break room was broken again. I kicked it once—hard, but not hard enough to damage it, just hard enough to express my opinion—and it worked for maybe ten more minutes before giving up entirely. That was fine. I didn't really want coffee. I wanted to go home and sleep for a week. It was 6:47 AM on a Tuesday in March 2015. I was working the night...0 Kommentare 0 Geteilt 6 Ansichten 0 Bewertungen
