Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

Adventures await Rector Wreck em Sherman. About to turn eighteen, he s facing ejection from the orphanage that passed for home. He should also choose a trade, but work is scarce in steam-powered Seattle. And Rector has more unconventional plans.

He s started dealing in sap, a yellow narcotic produced by rebels and outlaws within the city s toxic walled enclave. What s worse, he s been sampling his wares. Other problems include being haunted by an old friend with a grudge. The pressure builds until he sneaks behind the wall himself, seeking both (un)gainful employment and excitement.

As rumoured, he finds a terrifying host of the hungry undead, and then there s the monster. Rector's certain that his attacker wasn t human, or undead. But he s going to need more proof than his own addled word to expose it. His new mission becomes a compulsion when others witness the creature s destructiveness, and give its kind a name. The Inexplicables.
