The city.

Noisy, crowded, ever in motion, the city can be more than a setting. it can be a character, as nuanced and as fickle as a human being, with as many traits and quirks as the best mapped out characters. The city can be the ever-present and constant companion (or foe) to the protagonist and antagonist alike.

Winter in the City: A Collection of Dark Speculative Fiction is an anthology of dark speculative fiction tales that takes place in 18 different cities around the world during the bleak, sometimes harsh, season of winter.

• In Paris a vagrant artist confronts a terrible truth while traveling across a frozen Seine and the well-walked paths of l'empire de la Mort
• Children depart on a mystical quest to find their parents among the icy tombs of the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem
• In the snow-begotten slums of Manila, a young fighter must disobey her family and society to finally find freedom
• The white-out conditions in Brooklyn are not nearly as dangerous as deals made in blood and bone
