About this audiobook
Every light in Hollowmere is someone's last breath.
The city runs on the dead. Beneath the Cathedral, a machine keeps Hollowmere lit and warm by drawing on the bound consciousness of citizens the Church has taken. They sign a paper. Their name goes into the Hall of Records. They become the pulse of the city, and no one speaks of them again.
Callum Vane has spent two years writing down their names anyway. His grandfather built the failsafe. The tremor in his right hand is the family's oldest inheritance, and the Record is the only crime he has ever committed.
Fenwick Grangejoy was hired to find something else. He takes Cal instead.
What starts as an extraction becomes an accounting. Three hundred and forty-two names. A church that will burn the city before it admits what it built. And two men who find, in the worst possible place, something worth surviving for.
Book one of the Hollow Clock Saga. Gaslamp fantasy, M/M romance.
