Shelf Life

Gio is a 27-year old firefighter living in the 24th century. His expertise trades between tasks, as an independent hire, of getting rid of ghosts in sections of the city that need renovation in the night city of Sctaria. When he's called for a job at a library in the middle of downtown, he realizes he may be in over his head as the library has opened a realm for more ghosts to spread through parts of the city that need renovation and hijack many of the cities hi-tech operations. Where are they coming from, and what can be done to stop them? And why do city officials seem unwilling to settle even as some ghosts issue vague warnings about the city's future? Teaming up with a mousy haired cyborg librarian, Gio realizes he needs all the help he can get as the ongoing conflict reveals matters that can't always be resolved by his weapons of choice, especially with the city's survival at stake.
