The Anatomist of Shadows

By Jason Richard Clark

The Anatomist of Shadows

Book I of The Erevale Hymns
by Jason Clark

Beneath the smog-choked skies of Erevale, faith has rotted into ritual and science into heresy.
Disgraced anatomist Ephraim Thoren wants nothing more than to bury his past-until the body of a parish priest is found hollowed from within, and the Bureau drags him back into the city's blackened heart.

The investigation leads him through lantern-lit cathedrals, wax-veiled morgues, and fog-drowned streets where reason itself begins to unravel. The deeper Thoren digs, the more he glimpses something alive beneath Erevale's stone and scripture-something that hums like a hymn and feeds like a god.

As the city begins to bleed its secrets, Thoren must decide what he believes in: the logic that damned him, or the darkness that might save him.

A haunting blend of Victorian mystery, forensic horror, and supernatural suspense, The Anatomist of Shadows is the first entry in The Erevale Hymns-a gothic saga where every revelation is another verse in the city's requiem.
