Synopsis

This noir fantasy thriller from a debut author introduces the gritty town of Titanshade, where danger lurks around every corner.Carter's a homicide cop in Titanshade, an oil boomtown where 8-tracks are state of the art, disco rules the radio, and all the best sorcerers wear designer labels. It's also a metropolis teetering on the edge of disaster. As its oil reserves run dry, the city's future hangs on a possible investment from the reclusive amphibians known as Squibs.But now negotiations have been derailed by the horrific murder of a Squib diplomat. The pressure's never been higher to make a quick arrest, even as Carter's investigation leads him into conflict with the city's elite. Undermined by corrupt coworkers and falsified evidence, and with a suspect list that includes power-hungry politicians, oil magnates, and mad scientists, Carter must find the killer before the investigation turns into a witch-hunt and those closest to him pay the ultimate price on the filthy streets of Titanshade.

Goodreads review by Katherine on April 06, 2019

Titanshade is the most intensely imaginative detective novel I’ve ever read. Unrelenting in its pace, the plot packs a visceral wallop that keeps one reeling from the first page to the last.
