Würdest du an deinen Prinzipien festhalten, auch wenn es dich zerstören könnte? Jim, ein ehemaliger Ermittler der elitären Unterstadt, lebt ein eintöniges aber hartes Leben im Exil in der von extremem Wetter und Armut gezeichneten Oberstadt. Als seltsame Dinge geschehen, die sogar zum Tod eines Kollegen und Freundes führen, ergreift er die Gelegenheit, dem tristen Alltag zu entkommen und der Sache auf den Grund zu gehen. Schnell wird klar, dass er einer riesigen Sache auf der Spur ist. Trotz der Schrecken, denen er in der Unterstadt begegnet, erkennt er die Chance für einen Neuanfang, der allen Bewohnern von Riveris mehr Gerechtigkeit bringen kann. Aber nicht alle wollen das bestehende System aufgeben, so dass sich Jim kurzerhand im Fadenkreuz der Drahtzieher wiederfindet. Der Debütroman von Christian Grahn vereint Elemente aus Dystopie, Mystery, Krimi und Thriller zu einer düsteren, faszinierenden, fesselnden und spannenden Geschichte. Wenn du "Hunger Games", "Outer Limits" und Ähnliches magst, wirst du dieses Buch lieben.
