Evernight: A Tor.com Original (Wild Cards) Kindle Edition
The Wild Cards universe has been thrilling readers for over 25 years. From the darkly brilliant imagination of Victor Milán, the novelette "Evernight" takes readers down to the depths of the Parisian catacombs.
Candace Sessou is known to be many things: the ace known as The Darkness, a skilled negotiator in the field of diplomacy, a refugee with neither home nor family after fleeing a war-torn Congo. When she hears that her brother Marcel also survived but is now on the run as a wanted terrorist, Candace tracks him to the Parisian underground . . . only to strike a deal with dangerous forces in order to save both their lives.

By Victor Milan
Evernight looks into the darkness with in the world and realm of Wild Card Virus and those who attempted first to eradicate and then weaponize the Virus and its victims. The story touches base on the the corruption and power struggles in France. The first response in France to the outbreak was rounding up and exceling Wild Card Victims. This soon changed when the trial of the Four Aces made the corrupt American Policy the errorant opposition. France opened the door for victims. But as usual corruption in political spheres makes it ill advised to be afflicted and out in the open. Which opens the underground to those survivors.
This story looks into the original concept of the Takis-a virus. To quote Victor Milan, “They say that the wild card has a mischievous streak, that grants those whom it touches what they most desire.” What the problem with the virus is that people can not control what they desire. Takis-a is a cruel mistress. What does not kill you outright may condemn you forever. And only the chosen few can find an Ace in their hand.
Evernight is a poignant soliloquy to Victor’s remarkable characters. It shows the depth of the Wild Card Mosaic world, and the levels of human concepts of corruption, reputation and betrayal.
