Overview
How much of your soul can you lose before there’s nothing left to save?
Gabe Hendricks was a soldier when the United States tore itself apart. By the time he limped back to Detroit, the city was a corpse gutted by civil war, carved up by gangs, and patrolled by foreign embassies under the shadow of a gleaming UN Spire. Civilization had been replaced by raw, brutal, street-justice survival.
Now Gabe scrapes by as head of security at the Packard Hotel, a high-end brothel that caters to the last of the city’s powerful and depraved. He drinks too much, sleeps too little, and kills when he has to... just another broken man in a city full of them. Every day he tells himself this is just temporary. Every night he proves himself wrong.
When a powerful VIP turns up dead in one of the rooms, carrying secrets worth killing for, every faction in Detroit wants what the dead man had. Politicians, warlords, foreign agents, and the monsters that run the streets are all willing to burn what’s left of the city to get it.
With a price on his head and blood on his hands, Gabe is dragged into a web of conspiracy, betrayal, and black-market power plays. The deeper he goes, the more he realizes the real threat isn’t the men hunting him… it’s how much of himself he’s willing to destroy to survive.
Rust & Ruin is the first book in the gritty, post-apocalyptic Detroit series.
For mature readers only.
