    Hey,

    Are there any books that take place in the future, in a big city or suburbs where there’s a major crime or murderer or something of that nature? Just the story takes place in a more advanced society or even in an alternate universe?

      ***The Water Knife*** **(2015) by Paolo Bacigalupi** – A near-future thriller set in the American Southwest, exploring the battle for water rights. There is a gritty realism here in its futurism like there is in *The Road*, though not as desolate and advanced a dystopia as *The Road*. Murder mystery with mercenaries, kidnapping, torture, drone strikes, drugs, corporate corruption, totes action.
