Wellington Thorneycroft is content picking pockets, taking Ambrosia, screwing prostitutes, and simply surviving in the hellish, walled City. But everything changes when he spots a spectral woman who wordlessly conveys the message: We’ll escape together. Suddenly, Thorneycroft’s life is turned upside down as he’s pulled along a circuitous path to an unknowable freedom: a path marked by violence, sex, and metaphysical dread.
Reviews:
“The Sun Casts No Shadow by Mark Richardson is a dark and twisted tale of a city’s underbelly…A fascinating yarn that will captivate readers, The Sun Casts No Shadow easily earns five stars. Richardson has produced an exceptional work that readers will relish and avidly share for years to come.”―Portland Book Review
“A lowly man searches for a way out of a seemingly inescapable City in the dystopian noir…Richardson coats his short, engaging novel in a gleefully dense atmosphere…A dark, stylish tale that revels in its ambiguity.”―Kirkus Reviews

Looks like an interesting book. Neat title.
Thanks for the contest.
Very ominous. What will they find beyond the walled city- hell or paradise?
Not my normal type of read, but it does sound interesting. Life can be so much darker than many of us realize. It doesn’t have to be a dystopian world.
Sounds like a great read!
The blurb in a way illustrates why some prefer staying in an uncomfortable or bad place rather than trying to leave–change can lead to unforeseen problems and dangers.
