Fetter was raised to kill, honed as a knife to cut down his sainted father.
 
This gave him plenty to talk about in therapy. He walked among invisible powers: devils and anti-gods that mock the mortal form.

He learned a lethal catechism, lost his shadow, and gained a habit for secrecy.
 
After a blood-soaked childhood, Fetter escaped his rural hometown for the big city, and fell into a broader world where divine destinies are a dime a dozen. Everything in Luriat is more than it seems.

Group therapy is recruitment for a revolutionary cadre.
 
Junk email hints at the arrival of a god. Every door is laden with potential, and once closed may never open again.

The city is scattered with Bright Doors, looming portals through which a cold wind blows.
 
In this unknowable metropolis, Fetter will discover what kind of man he is, and his discovery will rewrite the world.
