A mystery set in an alternate-world city of "Bridges." Sort of "soft steampunk," insofar as the speculative elements don't play a huge role in the book. But the main character has a lot of voice, and as the title of the series suggests there is a dark conspiracy and intrigue across four crime families...which is definitely enough to draw you in and makes for a fun enough read.
Graphic: Kidnapping
