“It’s easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism,” said philosopher Frederic Jameson. In Jordan A. Rothacker’s Domed-Atlanta of 2220, the former has led to the latter.

Assistant Sacred Detective Edwina Casaubon and her Sherlock Holmes-like mentor, Sacred Detective Rabbi Jakob “Thinkowitz” Rabbinowitz, who we met for their first harrowing case together in The Death of the Cyborg Oracle, are back to solve another future noir mystery in The Shrieking of Nothing.

A Filipino mountain goddess, a missing person last seen at an Ego Death Fest, and a serial killer on the lose who might have a hunger for avatars, are just a few of the wild aspects of Rothacker’s thrilling second exploration of what Publisher’s Weekly called a “fascinating postcapitalist world.”

After climate catastrophe, the Earth might be unlivable, but within the Dome, solar-power and future tech, shared-guilt and cooperative healing, and hope as a practice have created a world without want or greed. Free from the dependent abstraction of capitalism all goddesses and gods are reclaimed for individual worship and the minimal crime is split into Sacred and Profane. In The Shrieking of Nothing, these Sacred detectives face a whole new cosmic horror.
