Nick Harkaway’s Titanium Noir series blends classic noir detective fiction with science fiction. The books are set in a world where a medical breakthrough called T7 can regenerate the human body, making recipients taller, stronger, and nearly immortal. The treatment is extremely expensive, so only the ultra-wealthy become these so-called Titans, creating a society where the rich are literally a different kind of human.

The first book, Titanium Noir (2023), introduces Cal Sounder, a detective who works cases that involve Titans because he has personal connections to their world. The second book, Sleeper Beach (2025), continues his story. Harkaway uses the detective framework to explore questions about wealth, power, and what happens when money can buy biological superiority.
