Description

A private eye stalks a serial killer through the streets of a permanently dark world in this mind-bending sci-fi thriller from one of the genre’s most visionary authors
 
Below the neon skies of Dayzone—where the lights never go out, and night has been banished—lowly private eye John Nyquist takes on a teenage runaway case. His quest takes him from Dayzone into the permanent dark of Nocturna.
 
As the vicious, seemingly invisible serial killer known only as Quicksilver haunts the streets, Nyquist starts to suspect that the runaway girl holds within her the key to the city’s fate. In the end, there’s only one place left to search: the shadow-choked zone known as Dusk.

Featured Reviews

The first novel in the John Nyquist series. [Read this a while ago, but forgot to post the review.]
Another interesting novel from Noon - an author who has been recommended to me so very often, but who I'm only slowly becoming familiar with. It's a strange, complex and ambitious science fiction mystery/noir. It's also very well-written and executed.
An interesting start to a series. Looking forward to reading the next novel.
