Ghosts of the Steel Road

There are two kinds of people in life: somebodies and nobodies. Know exactly which one you are.

Melandra Godfrey may not have had a good life, but it was at least a predictable life. Her father, the last private detective in Zarothe, may have had his long list of rules and the money never added up right, but at least both of those factors were consistent.

But when Melandra's father goes out of town on whatat first seems like a normal job, Melandra's world becomes unpredictable. A string of murders stokes fears of cult activity. An on-and-off friend warns of strange dangers. A mysterious man arrives at her door with an even more mysterious letter.

The Steel Road, the ever-present crux of trade in Zarothe, holds the key to the mysteries around Melandra and throughout her whole life.

Getting the answers she wants may mean doing the very thing Melandra hates most: becoming somebody.
