The Rich Die Elsewhere

Roza Calvert reads the dead for a living. In Verrick, where the wealthy pay compatible bodies to carry their damage, she decides whether a sink's death was contract or crime — and she has signed four hundred and six of them. Then a judge's sink dies of a severance that never happened, the judge ages out in ninety seconds, and Roza starts counting corpses nobody sold. What she finds has no contract, no consent, and no name attached.
