I could describe The Black Monday Murders as a comic book at the intersection of detective stories, high finance, dynastic conspiracies, and dark magic, but then you might think it's a wacky AU. It's not wacky; like most of John Hickman's books (e.g. the superb East of West) the world-building is both fascinating on its own and highly self-consistent.
But let's us all wish really really hard that it's an AU.
