The city stole her memory. The desert taught her how to fight.

Sometimes people leave the city and don’t come back, but Rhmañña Reddy had everything. An education, a good job, financial security. So why did she disappear? And why was she seen consorting with outsiders from the perimeter?

In 2167, Manna City’s problems are growing. To keep up with rising crime, the Council drafts new officers into a police augment. Siam Atticus was a PI and is now a cop, paired with the more experienced Caya Morton to find the missing woman.

As they unravel Rhmañña’s secrets to reveal a complex woman mixed up in the city’s dynastic power structure, Siam and Caya face a dark truth that Manna will hide at any cost.

Book 2 in this action-thriller series twisting around a conspiracy in a post-apocalyptic world, perfect for fans of William Gibson, Brandon Sanderson, Michael Crichton, and the game Fallout!
