Description

It is the far future. The artificial intelligences created by humanity are now gods, and mankind mere ants who scrabble in their shadows across a million worlds.

The Lords of the Great Houses on the ever-night Moon of Hexator are suspected of the murder of one of their own. And merchant William Roxley, once a magistrate-priest, is unwillingly coopted to uncover the truth behind the killings.

With only the help of his naive young assistant and a brutish robot bodyguard, the man they call ‘Sweet William’ digs into the Moon’s eerie existence. A collapsing society where many strange, terrible things are happening under night’s unsettling cover.

Hexator is a place where nothing is what it seems, perhaps not even William Roxley himself!

Other outlets

While I'd much rather you buy direct from me, I understand that's not always possible. Here's the link(s) to the billionaire tech-opolies, if you must go with them. It's an affiliate link, so I might get paid a few pence on week days that contain the letter 'Y' in a harvest moon when they're feeling kind. Maybe.
