Shadows and Debts: Tales from the Nexus (Paperback or Softback)

Welcome to Daybridge-a city where the veil between worlds wears thin, the dead don't stay buried, and ancient pacts written in blood still bind the living. Three interconnected stories expose the darkness at the city's heart: Detective Alice Chen investigates supernatural crimes where alchemical ambition meets forced transcendence. Archivist Nadia Marsh uncovers a seventy-year conspiracy of systematic murder and historical erasure. Miranda Hayes discovers that ghost adoption is actually legal trafficking-and chooses to burn the system down, no matter the cost.

From the Gothic arches of Daybridge Bridge to facilities twelve levels underground, these tales follow three ordinary people who refused to look away when looking away would have been easier. Each fights a different battle against the city's endemic corruption. Each discovers that in Daybridge, truth is the most dangerous weapon of all. And each learns that some debts can only be paid in blood, sacrifice, and the courage to stand against impossible odds.

Perfect for readers who love urban fantasy with bite, supernatural investigations grounded in emotional truth, and complex heroines who choose justice over safety. The Daybridge Chronicles continue-where every choice casts shadows, every truth demands payment, and the city remembers everything.
