"Never
Go Alone is an explosive return for both Denison Hatch and his hero." -

A rash of
elaborate cat burglaries of luxury buildings in Manhattan has the city
panicked.
When a
group of social media obsessed millennials--a loosely organized crew that call
themselves "urban explorers"--are suspected in the heists, undercover
NYPD detective Jake Rivett is assigned the case.
Rivett
dives deep into the urban exploration scene in pursuit of the truth. But what,
and who, he finds--deep in the sewers, up in the cranes above
under-construction skyscrapers, and everywhere else in New York--will change
not only Jake, but the city itself.

EXCERPT
The explorer gazed down the gleaming city from the
Upper West Side, all the way through Midtown and into Chelsea. It was more than
a place now, more than a landscape. By this point at its evolution, Manhattan
represented a geospatial-and-social coordinate on the razor’s edge of
modernity. It was no longer what the future could be. It was the future itself,
right now, happening in front of one’s eyes and reaching the stage of infinite
singularity. As the years had gone on, the surfaces of the metropolis had
become smooth, the lights perfect, the façades utterly complete. It no longer
beckoned for the masses humbly—it
repelled them. The construction site the explorer had ascended from would
soon consist of glass, marble, and sex. That was all, and that was everything,
and if one was rich enough, one could buy it. The new culture didn’t care for
culture itself. It did not bow to subtlety of argument or freedom of soul. It
only knew money—astronomical levels of money. The only people who could afford
to live here would be the progeny of sovereign wealth fund managers, tech
moonshot winners, and industrial titans. Nothing was free, for anyone—not even
the views.
