Yvonne Celestin sets seven bowls on the kitchen table. Six people will eat.
Neo New Orleans, Year 19. A low hum runs beneath the flooded wards. City officials call it maintenance. At the Anvil, shrine water lifts against gravity, grain sacks weigh short, and a public registry omits seventeen children standing in the rain.
Solène's household starts keeping its own record. They mark wages, medicine, repairs, and refusals. They also decide which names must stay off the public page. As the household repairs pumps and relays, they find a signal no office can explain. They trace the failures through Laveau Tech and the Board, then back to choices made inside the Anvil. Solène can document what the system did. She must answer for what she does with that knowledge.
DISSONANCE is an adult Afrofuturist science-fiction mystery. Dominguez builds the case from household records, testimony, public notices, and contested archives. The family brings spiritual practice and privacy into its work with labor records. Readers must separate verified facts from motives and public need from private life.
