Procession of the Dead

Book 1 of The City Trilogy

The Cardinal is the City and the City is the Cardinal. They are joined at the soul. Nothing moves on the streets, or below them without the Cardinal knowing about it. His rule is absolute.

But for a young man like Capac Raimi it still seems possible that he can make his way in the underworld; there’s always room for another gangster. But what Capac cannot know is that his past, present and future is already tied to the Cardinal. And he is a jealous master.
