A decommissioned god is suspected of causing a seawater incursion at a development project in his old haunts, and the decommissioner who handled his case sets out to investigate. But is the retired god the source of the problem? Or is it the work of a mortal saboteur? Searching for the answer to these questions brings Decommissioner Thirty-Seven face-to-face with a past she’d rather forget. More

The past can be a difficult thing to escape…

Decommissioner Thirty-Seven is not the most conventional decommissioner at the Ministry of Divinities, but she takes her role of helping fading gods to retire seriously—and feels bad when things go wrong. Take the decommissioning of Laloran-morna, former god of warm ocean waves: she botched that, somehow, and now he spurts saltwater when upset. When seawater invades a development project in Laloran-morna’s old haunts, suspicion naturally falls on him. But is the retired god the source of the problem? Or is it the work of a mortal saboteur? Searching for the answer to these questions brings Thirty-Seven face-to-face with a past she’d rather forget.
