Welcome to Soar, where your Level, your Class, and your god decide how you live and how you die. Unless you're Jana Lowe. Then you're all kinds of screwed.
When a High Priestess turns up dead in her own temple, the city does what it always does; shrugs and keeps moving. Corruption's just part of the landscape, and dead holy women aren't rare enough to make the betting books. But this particular corpse has Jana's name written all over it, and for once, that might not be a bad thing.
Once, he had a Class, a patron god, and a future. Now? He's broke, suspended, and, worst of all, fresh out of divine favour. Just a low-Level Private Investigator with limited Skills and a very punchable face.
To crack the case, Jana has to find a way to level up without a god's blessing, dodge the wrong kind of attention, and wade through a city where faith is currency and murder's just part of the market. And if he lives long enough to find the killer? Maybe - just maybe - he'll be allowed to get his job back.
He's Classless. Broke. Out of luck. But murder in Soar? That's his kind of trouble.
