To investigate, Borl  must travel from the decaying Beszel to its equal, rival, and intimate neighbor, the vibrant city of Ul Qoma. But this is a border crossing like no other, a journey as psychic as it is physical, a seeing of the unseen. With Ul Qoman detective Qussim Dhatt, Borl  is enmeshed in a sordid underworld of nationalists intent on destroying their neighboring city, and unificationists who dream of dissolving the two into one. As the detectives uncover the dead woman's secrets, they begin to suspect a truth that could cost them more than their lives. What stands against them are murderous powers in Beszel and in Ul Qoma: and, most terrifying of all, that which lies between these two cities.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eChina Miéville is the author of \u003cb\u003eKing Rat\u003c\/b\u003e; \u003cb\u003ePerdido Street Station, \u003c\/b\u003e winner of the Arthur C.
