The Patient from Below
ACT I Dr. Henry Blackwood's clinic was on Harley Street, in a building that had been a townhouse before someone with money and no taste turned it into a medical practice. The waiting room smelled of carbolic acid and lavender—two smells that had been mixed together by someone who thought they complemented each other but in fact created an odor that was worse than either alone. Blackwood sat in...

Sample V-11: The Last Ember
(Style C: Grand Narrative) The sky over the Last City was the color of a bruised plum, choked by the ash of a dying world. Below, the remnants of humanity huddled in the shadow of the Great Wall, waiting for the cold to finally take them. Captain Elias Thorne was not a soldier of the city, but a scavenger of the void. He was the last of the Gene-Walkers, men and women who had discovered the...

The Patient from Below
Chapter I: The Braking The letter arrived on a Friday, which in Vienna is the day when everyone pretends the weekend is going to save them from things they should have dealt with on Monday. It was typed on government stationery, in a font that was designed to look friendly but achieved only the effect of a smile that does not reach the eyes. The letter informed me that the Weiss Institute for...

The Glass Ceiling
The fog that November in London did not roll in so much as it descended, a yellow-grey blanket smothering the gas lamps until they glowed like diseased eyes. Victoria Ashworth stood at her workshop window on Fleet Street and watched the world dissolve, her reflection ghostly against the glass. Inside, behind iron curtains drawn against prying eyes, sat the Truth Machine. It was not her design,...

Sharon Williams was standing at a payphone on Grand River Avenue at 2:17 on a Tuesday morning when she realized that she had just made a call she was not supposed to remember.
Sharon Williams was standing at a payphone on Grand River Avenue at 2:17 on a Tuesday morning when she realized that she had just made a call she was not supposed to remember.She hung up. She walked back to her car -- a 1991 Ford Taurus with a dent on the passenger door from an incident she did not discuss. She sat in the car for five minutes, not moving, before driving home.Her daughter was...

The Last Bastion
The siege of Carcassonne had been going on for four months when I found the manuscript in the scriptorium. Four months of starvation, of watching men die behind walls that were meant to protect them, of hearing the catapults pound the stone from dawn until dusk. And in the scriptorium, surrounded by dying monks and half-finished illuminations, I found a book that would change everything I...

Sample V-01: The Gilded Mourning
The fog of London in 1888 did not just swallow the streets; it swallowed souls. Julian woke up in a damp cellar in Whitechapel with a mind as blank as a fresh shroud. He knew nothing of his name or his past, only that his hands moved with a precision that terrified him. When a thug tried to shake him down for a few shillings, Julian had dismantled the man's wrist and throat in three seconds, a...

The Last Hammer Fall
The Last Hammer Fall The hammer fell at dawn, as it always did. Four strokes, pause, four more. Joe Callahan did not set an alarm. His body woke on its own, the way a clock winds itself when the spring is still strong. The smithy glowed orange in the pre-dawn dark. Pittsburgh was already awake beyond the hills—smokestacks breathing, trains clacking, the city moving toward another day of making...

Wanderers of the Green Road
The first thing you learn in the war is that music doesn't matter. The second thing you learn is that music is everything. I learned both in New Orleans, October 1925. My name is Julian Greenleaf. I lost my left arm in the Argonne Forest, and I lost whatever was left of my innocence in the trenches. When I came home, they gave me a medal and a handshake and a country that looked at me like I...

The Great American Reckoning
The music was everywhere. It came through the walls of the ballroom, through the open windows, through the very floor beneath my feet, a jazz rhythm that seemed to pulse through the Long Island estate like blood through a body that didn't know it was alive. I stood in the centre of it all, in a tuxedo that didn't quite fit, surrounded by people who called me Julian Ashworth and looked at me...

The Tape That Killed Jack Donovan
The tape sat on Jack Donovan's desk in a plain brown envelope, and every time he looked at it, he felt the same thing: a cold, precise pressure behind his eyes, like a man pressing his thumb against a wound that had scabbed over and refused to stay scabbed. The tape was sixteen millimeter film, seven minutes long, spliced into a VHS copy that a man in a dark car had slipped through his...
