In a city built on myth and soaked in rain, truth is the most dangerous thing you can find. Mara Raven doesn't believe in gods, monsters, or totems. She believes in the dream-sea, an eerie, otherworldly current only she can dive into, dragging up secrets some would prefer to stay buried. Her husband is missing, and the dream-sea is the only way she knows to find him. For her, sinking into its water is not faith. It's survival. When a rich women's corpse explodes in the rain outside the Temple and floods half the Hill, Mara's pulled away from the search for her husband and back into the job she never asked for: using her strange Power to fish for killers in a city rotting from the inside out. 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.
