Description: [edit] [history]

It's about a zombie with nothing, risking everything to find something worth dying for.

It starts with me, half-dead, drenched in demon guts, and trading barbs with Death himself. A washed-up detective turned sideshow freak, I thought my hellspawn hunting days were done. Then Aylin shows up with her moonlit eyes, a curse, a city-crushing demon, and a possessed jacket with an attitude.

That was just the warm-up. Now, revived with a mission from Death and a body that's barely holding together, I'm on a collision course with the underworld's darkest secrets.

Grab a drink and hold on to your fedora, this story isn't for the faint-hearted.

RELEASE SCHEDULETWICE WEEKLY

Welcome to a world where noir meets the supernatural, and a gritty detective with a sardonic wit navigates the dark underbelly of a city teeming with magic, demons, and secrets. Our protagonist, Jack, is a private investigator with a knack for finding trouble, guided by his demon-possessed leather jacket, Frank. Together, they tackle cases that blur the lines between the living and the dead, unraveling conspiracies that threaten to tear apart the very fabric of reality.

Expect fast-paced action, sharp dialogue and self-aware humor. The series delivers intense, visceral fight scenes, dark humor, and a cast of eccentric characters. As Jack delves deeper into the mysteries of his world, he confronts not only external threats but also the haunting demons of his own past.

This series is perfect for readers who crave a blend of hard-boiled detective fiction, supernatural intrigue, and a dash of dark comedy. Buckle up for a wild ride through shadowy alleyways, arcane secrets, and battles that test the limits of human and inhuman endurance.

Hey there, wonderful people! Thanks so much for being here and supporting my work. It means the world to me.

The first book is done and just needs a bit of polishing, so we are releasing as we get some first edits done.

Ten book series planned.

Writing full-time has been a lifelong dream, and your support makes it possible.

I've also got another complete book and six more outlined in the LitRPG genre, called In Shadow and Light - A LitRPG Adventure. FIND IT HERE (Royal Road). Feel free to check those out too.

I hope you enjoy the ride as much as I've enjoyed creating it. Buckle up, it's going to be an adventure!
