Book Description:
In the
wasteland of commercial culture that is future America, police are operated not
by government but by private companies.
In Seattle,
that role is filled by Civil Protection, and Daniel Gray is a detective in
Homicide Solutions. What used to be considered an important - even glamorous -
department for public police is very different for the corporate species, and
Gray finds himself stuck in a dead end job. That is, until the Spine Thief
arrives.
When a serial
killer begins harvesting the spinal tissue of corporate employees all over the
city, Detective Gray finds himself plunged into the first truly major case of
his career. Caught in a dangerous mix of murder, betrayal and conflicting
corporate interest, Gray will find himself not only matching wits with a
diabolical murderer but grapple with his growing doubt toward his employers in
the dawning months of the American tricentennial.
A thrilling
mystery set in the same world as the Wonderland Cycle, Bone Wires is a grim
trip into the streets of the empty future.
About the Author:

Michael Shean
was born amongst the sleepy hills and coal mines of southern West Virginia in
1978. Taught to read by his parents at a very early age, he has had a great
love of the written word since the very beginning of his life. Growing up, he
was often plagued with feelings of isolation and loneliness; he began writing
off and on to help deflect this, though these themes are often explored in his
work as a consequence. At the age of 16, Michael began to experience a chain of
vivid nightmares that has continued to this day; it is from these aberrant
dreams that he draws inspiration.
In 2001
Michael left West Virginia to pursue a career in the tech industry, and he
settled in the Washington, DC area as a web designer and graphic artist. As a
result his writing was put aside and not revisited until five years later. In
2006 he met his current fiancee, who urged him to pick up his writing once
more. Several years of work and experimentation yielded the core of what would
become his first novel, Shadow of a Dead Star (2011). Michael is currently
signed with Curiosity Quills Press, who has overtaken publication of Shadow of
a Dead Star and the other books of his Wonderland Cycle.
