Midnight, Water City

2150: An unnamed police detective receives a message from Akira Kimura, the preeminent scientist who vanquished a world-ending meteor thirty years ago. Ascalon's Scar remains emblazoned in the sky, a permanent reminder of humanity's close call with extinction. When he arrives at Akira's home and finds her methodically dismembered, he must dig into their shared past to find her killer. Through a future of underwater cities, skin-dyed teenagers, and a wealth gap that has outlived a near-apocalypse, McKinney's cinematic novel is the perfect blend of cyberpunk and thrilling detective procedural.
