"An awesomely fluent and versatile prose stylist" - INDEPENDENT "Amazing achievement ... Harrison pulls off the almost impossible feat of seamlessly blending hard sci-fi, cyberpunk, noir crime ... while doing what all the best literature does" - Goodreads Reviewer Set in the unique world, first featured in the award-winning Light, here is a story of love, murder, and intergalactic noir on the razors edge of the imagination, as envisioned by the incomparable M.

John Harrison. In a neighbourhood of underground clubs, body-modification chop shops, adolescent contract killers, and sexy streetwalking Monas, you'll find the Saudade Event - a zone of strange geography, twisted physics, and frightening psychic onslaughts. Vic Serotonin is a travel agent, arranging illegal travel to and from Saudade.

His latest client wants a tour and she is a woman as unpredictable as the site itself, and maybe just as dangerous. Coincidentally, a troubling new class of semi-biological artefacts start finding their way out of the site, transforming the real world in unsettling ways.
