"In an age of Zeppelins and gyroplanes, atomics and horseless
carriages, the Transatlantic Span is the industrial marvel of the
nineteenth century. A monumental feat of engineering, the steel
suspension bridge stretches across the Atlantic from Liverpool to
the distant harbor of New York City, supported by no less than
seven hundred towers. But in the shadows of its massive struts, on
the docks of the River Mersey, lies a faceless corpse...
"Inspector Matthew Langton is still seized with grief when he
thinks of Sarah, his late wife. Tortured by nightmares and
afflicted by breathless attacks of despair and terror, he forces
himself to focus on the investigation of the faceless man. The
victim wears the uniform of the Transatlantic Span Company but
bears the tattoos of the Boers--could there be a Boer conspiracy to
assassinate Queen Victoria on the upcoming Inauguration Day of the
Span?
But the truth, as it begins to emerge, is far more bizarre than a
political coup. As additional victims turn up--each with strange,
twin burn marks on their necks--Langton draws a connection between
the dead man beneath the bridge and chilling rumors of the Jar
Bars, soul snatchers who come under cover of night. Most
frightening of all is the mythic and elusive Doktor Glass, who may
not only be behind the illicit trade in souls...but who may hold
the key to what happened to the inspector's own beloved wife on her
deathbed...
