Martel gets grief from everyone, including butlerbots. This is from The Nightmonger Murders, sequel to my Martel PI novel The Ronin of Vine Street.

I haven't posted many quotes lately so here's one from Ch 13 of The Nightmonger Murders. There's a lot of spoilers in that chapter, but this one is not. It's also kinda cheeky...

Most writers base their villains on classic gothic literature or historical tyrants.
I went another direction.
Log 011 breaks down exactly why the WrestleMania X-Seven main event inspired my villain.

A bustling alien marketplace at night under a star-filled sky. The focal point is a large tented structure with glowing neon signs hanging from the roof, three of which display unfamiliar alien symbols in blue, purple, and red. An "OPEN" sign is prominently visible. The market stalls are staffed by mysterious alien figures in long robes, engaged in various transactions. The stalls are illuminated by warm lights, creating a stark contrast to the cool blues of the night. Several futuristic spacecraft hover in the sky, emitting soft yellow lights and leaving trails of mist. The entire scene exudes a mysterious and otherworldly atmosphere.

Act I — Part 1: “You’ll Steal What I Tell You” The salon is colder than it looks. A garden mural pretends at California… lemon trees, a chalk-blue sky… but the air tastes of antiseptic and brine. At the room’s center rises the column: glass, steel rings, a slow peristaltic pulse of bubbles. Inside, suspended like a thought you can’t unthink, floats Magnus Caulfield. His hands are the first thing Vera clocks… split like a bird’s foot, two thick, opposing digits where five should be, keratin scrolled into plates that flash when the column light swings. He lifts one in greeting. The gesture is almost courtly. Orrin Hex enters from a side door, eyes too bright, smile ironed flat. “Magnus Caulfield will outline scope.” Vera keeps her distance, close enough to see the microturbines in the base of the column, far enough that a hidden gun can’t triangulate an easy shot. The floor has that faint magnetic pull, she files it away. A room designed so the man in the tank owns your stance. “Or should I say Lobster?” she says. Magnus doesn’t blink. The gel shifts around his ribs as he resettles. His voice comes through ceiling speakers warm and exact, like an audiobook version of himself. “You may say it. You won’t write it.” Orrin ticks his gaze toward Vera’s boots, as if checking for mud on a white rug. “We appreciate formality.” “I appreciate air,” she says, lifting her chin at the column. “You’ve cornered the market.” A short beat. The bubble pulse slows, then quickens… either a joke lands, or a valve does its work. “Please sit,” Magnus says. There are two chairs and a floating table holding a carafe of water that is surely not poisoned, too obvious, but also surely tracked. Vera doesn’t sit. Orrin does, ringing the glass with one manicured fingernail. Magnus: “You came because the price was persuasive.” Vera: “I came because your courier said, ‘urgent, discreet, high hazard, high integrity.’ Integrity is a joke, but I respect hazard.”

In the rain-slicked streets of New Vega, a simple missing person case turns deadly. For a washed-up PI like Vic Dukes, finding a kidnapped professor is just another job-until it uncovers a conspiracy that could burn the whole city to the ground.

I finished writing ch 2 of the Nightmonger Murders. If the 1st ch was too short, this one is probably too long. I guess it all evens out. #writingscifi #scifinoir #booksky
