“A wonderful alternative-history thriller [that] deftly weaves together influences like Phillip K. Dick and Raymond Chandler.” —Mike Stackpole, New York Times–bestselling author of I, Jedi
 
My name is Noel Glass. I once was a respected scientist and madly in love. All that ended with a deadly experiment that cost me the life of my fiancée.
It’s 1953 and I’m a detective working the streets of Industry City. I don’t rely on instinct; science is my game. The cases I get, and the booze I drink, keep oblivion just a step away. That is, until some rich recluse walks in and tells me that accident from all those years ago was a frame job, and I was meant to take the fall.

Now I have to clear my name . . . like that’s easy. Everyone’s keeping secrets. Who can I trust? Even my muscle-bound bodyguard can’t keep the hit men, spies—or my own government—from trying to put me six-feet under.

You see, this secret organization believes I know something and wants to keep me quiet. All I do know is they’re aiming to remake the world into their own twisted image using a device I created. They’ve already killed one world leader, and President Eisenhower could be next.

God, I could use a shot of bourbon and some answers, but neither comes cheap these days.
 
“Boop goes beyond the usual suspects when the conspiracy is uncovered for an unusual alternative history twist.” —The Denver Post
 
“Enthusiastically recommended for fantasy and science fiction enthusiasts.” —Midwest Book Review
