Publisher's Synopsis
If you like dystopian political thrillers like 1984, Fahrenheit 451, and The Handmaid's Tale, then this might be the novel you've been looking for.
Cassius Wortham leaves all he knows behind to make it as a writer in the City, a nameless, walled metropolis at the crossroads of the world. But things are not as they seem. His roommate might have mob connections, his artist friend has addiction issues, and the waitress at the poetry club has political aspirations. Not to mention the invisible spirit of history that follows them around waiting to chronicle a looming catastrophe. An overseas turmoil brings tides of refugees to the walls of the City. Ambitious leaders play at social engineering. The loudest voices are drowned in the growing silence. Only Cas, his friends and their ghostly tagalong hold the key to the future, for in the end the Silent will decide the fate of the City. Listen...and you too may hear the instruments of the Silent Symphony. Can you find all the secrets? Can you find the truth? Do you know why the City fell?
