About this audiobook

On one side of the city, time moves fast enough to kill. On the other side, slow enough to be worth dying for. A crow crosses the line and falls in three pieces. In a shop near the seam, a man has spent seventeen years building something the Authority does not know exists. Nothing in the record will say what happens next.
