When secrets surface, no one escapes the flood.
A TALE OF THREE CITIES by Elana Gomel is a noir fantasy for readers who love morally gray heroines, twisted devotion, and haunting mysteries. It’s now available at your favorite retailer!
In a city built on myth and soaked in rain, truth is the most dangerous thing you can find.
When a women’s corpse explodes in the rain outside the Temple and floods half the Hill, Mara Raven is pulled away from the search for her missing husband and back into the job she never wished for: using her strange Power to fish for killers in a city rotting from the inside out.
Mara Raven doesn’t believe in gods or monsters. The only thing she puts her faith in is the dream-sea — an eerie, otherworldly current only she can dive into, dragging up secrets others prefer to stay buried. The Temple wants silence, preferring to pray to the Slaughtered Ones, long dead ancestors Mara doesn’t believe ever existed. The constables want results. And someone else, known only as the Revealer, wants to open the ancient Gate to the so-called Abode of the Ancestors, an act which may prove disastrous.
As the city drowns in its myths and murder, Mara follows a trail of blood, lies, and twisted devotion as nightmares from the dream-sea begin to bleed into reality. A seal has been broken. Something is coming through that Gate, and it’s not forgiveness for the city’s sins.
Dark, hallucinatory, and sharp as broken glass, A Tale of Three Cities is a speculative noir mystery for readers who like their heroines mad, bad, and haunted.
