About this book
- The Mississippi runs thick with greed and coal smoke. Jonah Pike, once a Sherpa who carried climbers to the roof of the world, now shovels coal in the belly of the paddlewheel steamer Aethelred. When he hears the captain order the ship to ram a smaller vessel for insurance gold, Jonah faces a hellish choice: sabotage the paddles and save the other boat—or obey and drown his own brother, the pilot of that fragile craft. But as the river narrows and the engine room blazes, every shovel of coal is a step up a lethal face, and the only rope is memory. A hallucinated brother, a lie that started before page one, and a grief that climbs like altitude sickness.
