It’s the year 2008.
Owen Zelazny, a handsome street hustler who’s finally found a reason to quit the world’s oldest profession, finds that the kind of life he led has a way of catching up with you. It was in the city of Maranatha that he became who he was, and the city, it seems, doesn’t want to be forgotten.
Chased by men willing to kill him for reasons he barely understands, Owen has no choice but to run, and run, and run. He knows there’s only one place he can run, one man who can help him. A man he turned his back on three years ago. A man named Malloy.
Together, they find their past coming back to haunt them, tearing open old wounds, but if they ever stop to let their broken hearts catch up with them, they’re as good as dead.
Heathen City is a struggle for survival in a harsh, sinful, violent urban environment. It’s the world we live in: cities are a tangled mess of plans and failures, ambitions and conspiracies. The rich brush against the poor, criminals attend church, mobsters and family men walk the same streets.
Heathen City is a story about sin and salvation, about the brutal consequences of innocent mistakes, the fatal fall-out of easy choices.
This is the world of Heathen City.
