DISSONANCE
A Neo New Orleans Case FileBy Manuel A. Dominguez
Length8h 26m
About this audiobook
In Neo New Orleans, the water has risen, the city has divided, and the Board counts every ration, route, and resident.
When Solène Lafitte finds forty-seven children waiting for food where the registry lists only thirty-one, she opens a second ledger. Missing names, short grain sacks, diverted oil, and a strange frequency moving through the ward’s relay system reveal a deeper design: shortages, checkpoints, and public infrastructure are being used to control who receives aid, who disappears, and whose testimony matters.
With the Anvil household, a scarred guardian, a clinic leader, a compromised administrator, and an archivist inside the Canopy, Solène builds a case the Board cannot allow to survive. But every name can become a route, every measurement a weapon, and every act of resistance carries a cost.
DISSONANCE is an Afrofuturist speculative-noir novel about memory, consent, power, and a community fighting to remain human inside a system built to make them measurable.
