Dain Curse on Mars

On Mars, people still face theft, fraud, and violence, because humanity didn't change as it colonized this thin-atmosphered desert of a place. That's why Martians need police and private detectives.

In the domed city of San Francisco de Marte, hard-boiled detective Clay Cash works as an operative of the Continental Detective Agency. Cash has taken on a stolen-diamonds case, but it quickly twists into something far worse: a tangled mess of blackmail, cult fraud, addiction, and murder.

At the center of the chaos is Gabrielle Leggett, a haunted heiress who is tortured by a family curse. Cash must untangle the science, superstition, and human cruelty before the curse claims everyone around the young woman.

Eric Loren's futuristic adaptation of Dashiell Hammett's original hard-boiled detective novel is captivating, filled with drug-induced fakery, frame-ups, and false leads.

Don't miss this sci-fi crime noir tale of deception and death, where the Continental Op is determined to rescue Gabrielle from her life choices and the curse that follows her everywhere.
