THE STATIC VEIL ​By Wolfiea.E ​The world isn't what you see. It's what you can't forget. ​Detective Elias Thorne lives in the "Static." While the rest of the city sees a clean, modern metropolis, Elias sees the glitching echoes of the past and the bloody shadows of the next ten seconds. To most, he's just a washed-up alcoholic cop. To the hidden predators ruling the city, he is the only man who can see the teeth behind their smiles. ​When a high-society murder reveals a trail leading to "The Larder"-a secret harvesting ground for the city's elite. Elias is thrust into a war he never asked for. Alongside a black-market alchemist named Sloane and a rogue werewolf named Fenris, Elias must navigate the "Mire" of creatures hiding in the dark. ​The city is not governed; it is managed by a biological elite Vampires who use illegal biotech and nanotech to hide their predatory nature behind high-society boardrooms. They are supported by "The Mire," a hidden underworld of Witches, black-market alchemists dealing in neurotoxins and Werewolves, genetically enhanced enforcers who hunt anyone who sees too much. ​As Elias discovers the horrifying truth that the elite are harvesting the DNA of children to steal his "Static" powers for themselves, he must make a choice: succumb to the permanent silence of his madness, or tear back the veil and burn the architecture of the monsters to the ground. ​Armed with a potent neurotoxin and a vision that is slowly tearing his mind apart, Elias is the only thing standing between the city and a future it can't escape.
