Golems are coming out of the mist, and the bodies of the dead are rising at the Gloam's bidding.

In the smoke-choked nation of Lusena, survival is the only dream the poor are allowed to have. Juan Barrion Veyra is no hero-just a factory worker, a gambler, and a man running from his past. When a failed heist unleashes a brutal manhunt across the city, Juan is dragged into a war he never chose, crossing paths with Dahlia Soleyna, a dangerous thief hiding secrets of her own. As gangs hunt, corporations tighten their grip, and soldiers turn streets into graves, something ancient begins to stir-something that should never have been found.
