  More than a dozen spaceships have disappeared into hyperspace, never to return. The lost vessels include the Jason, the Starbird, and the Invincible. Everyone assumes they fell victim to some kind of mechanical failure. 
  The mystery deepens when the Invincible turns up drifting in space six months after it vanished. The ship's engines are undamaged, the hull intact — yet no trace remains of its crew or its two hundred passengers. Where have they gone? 
  Clearly something ominous has happened to the ship and the people on board.

  "As a heatwave engulfs New York in the summer of 1889, the city’s top models begin turning up dead, one by one, suggesting the work of a single killer. Society-girl-turned-investigative-journalist Genevieve Stewart is drawn into the case when Beatrice Holler, one of her friend Callie’s fellow models, is found with her throat cut. Genevieve and her compatriot, wealthy Daniel McCaffrey, are joined by Callie to seek out the suspects, which leads them to search for answers from the members of the elite, notorious gangsters, and the city's most prominent painters. In an era when London’s Jack the Ripper murders have everyone on edge, the police want to keep the killings quiet. But the bodies are piling up as fast as the suspects—and unless the killer is found, the simmering New York summer could boil over into madness."

  A short story about isolation, empire and the shadows that exist when no one is around.
