500 years ago, Inventor Benjamin Kerr founded the domed neo-Victorian city of Bridges on the barren plains at the center of the former US. After the overthrow of the Kerr dynasty 100 years ago and several decades of street warfare, Bridges is now split between four crime families, who control everything from the courts to the papers. In the midst of crushing social disparity and a failing steam-driven infrastructure, a new faction rises: the Red Dog Gang.
The Red Dog Conspiracy follows the story of 22-year-old small-time private eye Jacqueline Spadros beginning from her first major case: the missing little brother of her best friend, whose murder ten years before in front of her still haunts her nightmares. The only clue? A Red Dog stamp across the alley from where the boy was last seen.
Dodging the man - seemingly mad - who has publicly threatened her life, placating her brutal, sadistic father-in-law, and dealing with her feelings about her ex-lover Joseph Kerr, while being married to one of the city's biggest drug lords: Jacqui is a busy woman. Her life is about to get much busier.
From the very first page, Jacqui is dragged into a web of lies, secrets, and betrayals which both endangers her life and the lives of those she loves.
Dark, gritty, violent steampunk crime fiction which keeps you guessing to the very end. If you like crime fiction, noir, Victorian/historical, gritty steampunk, psychological thrillers, hardboiled mystery, hard sf, dystopian, or mafia romance you will love this set.
