The house on the delta
Summer in the Mississippi Delta was like a wet blanket pressed against the roof of Catletton House. Silas Catletton stood on the porch and watched the river flow like a brown snake beside the estate, and he thought about the men who had stood on this same porch before him and felt the same weight pressing down on their shoulders. The house had belonged to his family for two centuries. But every...

Variant 002: The Gilded Dream (Jazz Age Idealism)
# Based on: downloaded_work The penthouse of the Sterling Building was a cathedral of chrome and crystal, overlooking a Manhattan that pulsed with the frantic energy of 1924. Arthur Sterling lived at the center of this electric storm, a man whose charisma was as potent as the illegal gin flowing through his parties. He was a scion of old money who treated the world as a playground, and people...

The corner of seventh
The thing about Brooklyn is that nobody notices when it ends. Not because it ends loudly. Because it ends the way a neighborhood ends when the rent goes up too high and the bodega becomes a boutique and the bodega guy moves to Queens and the street where you grew up has a new name that nobody uses. Quietly. Systematically. Without anyone throwing a punch. Eliot Rosenberg lived on the corner of...

The river at dawn was the color of old tin, and the ruins of Oakhaven did not so much stand as sag—a town that had been built on coal and had died when coal went out, leaving behind a skeleton of b...
Ray Donovan stood on the ridge above the town, hands in the pockets of a coat that had not seen a tailor since 1968, and watched the morning light struggle through the smog that hung over the valley like a gray blanket. He was fifty-five years old, had spent thirty of them working at the steel plant before it closed, and had spent the last five years trying to figure out why the animals kept...

The Iron Sight of Blackwood
The cellar door groaned on rusted hinges, and Edward Ashworth descended into the cold dark with nothing but a tallow candle to guide him. The air below was thick with the smell of damp earth and something older—something that had seeped into the stone over three centuries and would not be shaken loose by any living hand. He was twenty-four years old, and he had come to Blackwood Manor because a...

The Gilded Ruin (V-09)
Paris in 1895 was a city of light, but Julian lived in the shadows of its brilliance. He did not see the world in terms of profit and loss; he saw it as a canvas of kinetic energy. To Julian, a stock market crash was not a financial disaster—it was a crescendo. A corporate merger was not a business move—it was a brushstroke of power. He had returned to this era with a mind that functioned like...

The Star Beacon of Montparnasse
I. The Great Withering did not announce itself with fire or flood. It arrived as a whisper—a gradual greying of the world that no one noticed until the world was grey. The wheat went first, then the orchards, then the grass. By the time humanity understood what was happening, half the breadbasket of the earth had turned to ash, and no one knew whether it was the soil, or the sky, or God who had...

The Corridor on Cottage Grove
The fluorescent light in the corridor hummed at a frequency that Frank had come to associate with waiting. Waiting for the shift to end. Waiting for the weekend to end. Waiting for something he could not name but knew was not coming. It was 2003, and Chicago's South Side was the kind of place that did not appear in postcards. The buildings were brick and tired, the windows were broken or...

Unwinding Toward the Canal
The new journal was blank. Rose O'Connor sat at her desk on Henry Street in Brooklyn Heights, forty years old, the book published three months earlier, the old journal closed for the first time in fourteen years. The leather cover was cracked and split, the spine held together with surgical tape she had taken from a field hospital outside Algiers in the winter of 1962. She had carried it from...

The Celestial Architect
The skyline of Neo-Manhattan was a jagged, neon-lit prayer to a god of gold and glass. In the year 202, the city didn't sleep; it vibrated with the hum of a trillion data-streams and the hollow laughter of the Gilded Age. Sebastian lived in a penthouse that touched the clouds, a space filled with holographic sculptures and the scent of expensive, synthetic ozone. He was the most celebrated...

Variant 003: The Iron Horizon (American War Literature)
The mud of the Ardennes had a way of swallowing men whole. Sergeant Miller looked at the line of shivering boys in his platoon—kids from Ohio and Kansas who had been told that war was a grand adventure. Now, they were just wet, cold, and terrified, huddled in a foxhole that felt more like a grave. Miller had been in the service for ten years. He had seen the world break in three different time...

The Resonant Heart
The Resonant HeartAct IThe party had begun, as all parties on Long Island must, with music. Not the measured, polite music of a drawing-room ensemble, but jazz—brass and rhythm and the kind of wild, desperate joy that only people who have seen the war can produce. Bea Callaway stood at the edge of the terrace, a champagne flute in her hand she had no intention of drinking, watching the lights...
