Beneath the humming neon glow of a forgotten bridge, people are vanishing.

Rhea Ansel, an overworked social worker in a decaying American city, has spent years fighting for the unhoused community living under the Jefferson Street overpass. But when three of her regulars disappear overnight - leaving behind only a perfect circle of human teeth - Rhea becomes the sole witness to something the authorities refuse to see.

As Rhea digs deeper, she uncovers a truth more horrifying than any urban legend: the city's neglected infrastructure is alive... and it's hungry.

What begins as a search for missing people spirals into a descent beneath the streets-into storm drains, forgotten tunnels, and substructures that pulse like living organs. With the help of a jaded detective and a guilt-stricken structural engineer, Rhea races to uncover how the creature formed, why it feeds on the invisible, and what lies waiting beneath the neon-lit ribs of the overpass.

But the city has made a terrible bargain. And the thing under the bridge remembers every soul it has consumed.

Under the Neon Bridge is a visceral, slow-burn urban horror novel about systemic neglect, the cost of invisibility, and the horrors we build - literally - into the bones of our cities. Perfect for fans of Jeff VanderMeer, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, T. Kingfisher, and urban-paranormal dread with a social edge.
