Sight Above Station: Book 1 - Before the Descent

By Mr Jake C Bellerby and Jake Bellerby

In Gildcleft, every ordinary death ends in light.

Bodies are committed to the sacred Chasm, where a pulse rises over the city and the dead are said to return their essence to the Deep. But when dockhand Callum Draft vanishes after answering a notice for discreet, well-paid work, his wife fears more than death. Once the Chasm takes him, there will be no body, no grave, and no proof.

Arthur Mercer-Vane is a private detective with a rare and dangerous gift: he can see blood where others cannot. Hired to find Callum before the city erases him.

There he uncovers a system that feeds on the poor while the powerful call it holy.

The dead sustain Gildcleft.

Arthur is about to learn who has been dining well.
