490 1  The Water City trilogy 
520    "2150: An unnamed police detective receives a message from
       Akira Kimura, the preeminent scientist and living legend 
       who vanquished a world-ending meteor thirty years ago. As 
       Akira's former head of security--and perhaps her only 
       friend--he is one of the few who knows of the sacrifices 
       that were necessary for her to complete Ascalon, the 
       cosmic ray that neutralized the global threat. Ascalon's 
       Scar remains emblazoned in the sky, a permanent reminder 
       of humanity's close call with extinction. When he arrives 
       at Akira's home and finds her methodically dismembered, he
       must dig into their shared past--with the help of a 
       mysterious synesthesia that no one else knows he has--to 
       find her killer. Through a future of underwater cities, 
       floating suburbs, skin-dyed teenagers, and a wealth gap 
       that has outlived a near-apocalypse, McKinney's cinematic 
       novel is the perfect blend of dark cyberpunk and thrilling
       detective procedural, all while posing the ultimate 
       question of what we are willing to sacrifice to engineer 
       the world we want"--|cProvided by publisher.
