Knopf, $c 2023. 300 $a 235 pages ; $c 25 cm 520 $a "Cal Sounder is a detective working for the police on certain very sensitive cases. So when he's called in to investigate a homicide at a local apartment, he is surprised at first to see that the victim appears to be a rather typical, milquetoast techie. But on closer inspection, he finds the victim is over seven feet tall. And even though he doesn't look a day over thirty, he is actually ninety years old. Clearly, he is a Titan-one of this dystopian, near-future society's genetically-altered elites. There are only a few thousand Titans worldwide, all thanks to Stefan Tonfamecasca's discovery of the controversial T7 genetic therapy, which elevated his family to near godlike status. A dead Titan is big news . . . a murdered Titan is unimaginable. But Titans are Cal's specialty. In fact, his ex-girlfriend, Athena, is a Titan. And not just any Titan-she's Stefan's daughter, heir to the Tonfamecasca empire. As Cal digs deeper into the murder investigation, he begins to unweave the complicated threads of what should have been a straightforward case, and it soon becomes clear he's on the trail of a crime whose roots run deep into the dark heart of the world. Titanium Noir is a tightly woven, intricate tale of murder, betrayal, and vengeance"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Genetic engineering $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Social classes $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Betrayal $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Conspiracies $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Science fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Dystopian fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 941 $a 6 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412010648.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20231206014538.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20230713113839.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20230706010716.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20230701010042.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20230524010433.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=539682FCF9F811EDB1C0740753ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b JIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
