The Penumbra Podcast

Working for a man as connected as Ramses O’Flaherty means access to places nobody else gets to go... or wants to, as it turns out. Because on this case Ramses is sending Juno into the Fortezza, Hyperion City’s prison for criminal genius, to stop a murder before it can be committed.

Who’s the victim, you ask? Well... Ramses, of course.

Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your journey.

Someone is out to kill Ramses O'Flaherty -- and whoever they are, they should be here. A killer called this home, but it isn't any kind of home Juno's ever seen before. This is a place where the impossible happens, where an ancient heroine walks the streets, where dragons live on every mountaintop... and where nothing is ever as it seems.

Welcome to Polaris Park.

And welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your journey.

Doctor Palomine Aurinko made a career out of changing people. A behaviorist, in his mind, should be a sculptor of the soul: a set of firm hands to grasp and pinch and mold a person into anyone -- or anything -- he desired.

Palomine is long dead now, but his ideas live on without him. The sculptor's hands continue to mold... and Juno Steel is about to find out what happens when those hands start changing someone very close to him.

Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay.

Detective Steel is in a slump, and Maia King might have just the case to bring him out of it. One problem: half the case is going to be figuring out what the case even is, because if Ms. King is to be believed, the culprit would have to be... well, something that doesn’t exist. The stakes are life-or-death here... so hopefully Juno can figure out whose life or death before time runs out.
