About the book
About Bumper City
An Opera of Knives & Bullets is the first book in the Bumper City series. Las Vegas is nearly destroyed. Rebuilt and renamed as New Vegas, the city sits under a dark cloud that blocks all sunlight. Planes can't fly, cell phones don't work, and twenty miles of toxic wasteland surround the city. Beneath the neon, a serial killer roams the streets, and a new drug infused with nanotechnology, is killing thousands. The streets turn violent as mutants riot in protest of working conditions and the disappearance of their children. A cabal of Big Tech, the Wealthy Elite, and Corrupt Politicians attempt to cover it up. They can't allow anything to interfere with the elections, profits, or their plans. Can hard-nosed Detective Alton Cold and his talking car Bessimer catch the killer, stop the cabal, and expose the truth? Or will the sudden appearance of a mysterious woman cloud his judgement as the unnatural cloud darkens the sky? To save the people he cares about, he'll put everything on the line to confront a darkness far worse than the night.
