A compelling debut by a new voice in fantasy fiction, The Conductors features the magic and mystery of Jim Butcher\'s Dresden Files series written with the sensibility and historical setting of Octavia Butler\'s Kindred.

As a conductor on the Underground Railroad, Hetty Rhodes helped usher dozens of people north with her wits and magic. Now that the Civil War is over, Hetty and her husband, Benjy, have settled in Philadelphia, solving murders and mysteries that the white authorities won\'t touch. When they find one of their friends slain in an alley, Hetty and Benjy bury the body and set off to find answers.
