Thriller
Years after Ed Chianese’s fateful trip into the Kefahuchi
Tract, the tract has begun to expand and change in ways we
never could have predicted—and, even more terrifying,
parts of it have actually begun to fall to Earth,
transforming the landscapes they encounter.
Not far
from Moneytown, in a neighborhood of underground clubs,
body-modification chop shops, adolescent contract killers,
and sexy streetwalking Monas, you’ll find the Saudade
Event Site: a zone of strange geography, twisted physics,
and frightening psychic onslaughts—not to mention the
black and white cats that come pouring out at irregular
intervals.
Vic Serotonin is a “travel agent” into
and out of Saudade. His latest client is a woman who’s
nearly as unpredictable as the site itself—and maybe just
as dangerous. She wants a tour just as a troubling new
class of biological artifacts are leaving the site—living
algorithms that are transforming the world outside in
inexplicable and unsettling ways. Shadowed by a
metaphysically inclined detective determined to shut his
illegal operation down, Vic must make sense of a universe
rapidly veering toward a virulent and viral form of chaos…
and a humanity almost lost.
