Welcome to Iron City.
A peaceful, vibrant metropolis known for its award-winning sourdough, ethical hedge funds, and low murder-to-cocktail ratio.
Brian Maddox is just your average billionaire: he has a tragic backstory, an extensive weapons vault, and only cries during post-battle therapy and dog commercials.
When Brian returns to the city he left behind, he has one goal:
Open a hospital.
Not a metaphor. An actual hospital. With beds and nurses and inspirational lighting.
Unfortunately, Iron City has other plans.
There's a masked urban myth punching people into existential crises.
There's a journalist who asks far too many personal questions.
There are crime lords with names like The Herring, and yes, that is a threat and a metaphor.
Someone's installing fear into the bones of the city like hardwood flooring.
And it definitely isn't Brian.
Probably.
Tear in the Mask is a lighthearted tale of friendship, urban gardening, intergenerational crime trauma, and shadow-drenched rooftop therapy.
This is Book One of a trilogy.
The next two parts feature even less gardening and significantly more emotional damage.
