    In the neon-drenched downpour of New London, magic doesn't save you. It collects a receipt written in blood.** **[A gritty, razor-sharp dark urban fantasy perfect for fans of *John Constantine*, *The Dresden Files*, and *Cyberpunk 2077*.]** ### ▍The Synopsis > *"In a city built on secrets, the hardest truth lies in the shadows."* > **Ethan Vance** is a man living on borrowed time. Once the Church's top rogue-hunter, he is now a cynical, chain-smoking underground scavenger. His blind left eye has been replaced by a volatile "Demon Eye"-a cursed artifact that allows him to track supernatural residue, but relentlessly consumes his sanity every time he uses it. When a routine investigation for a stolen ceremonial dagger leads Ethan to the horrific, soul-charred corpse of a black-market dealer, he finds himself trapped in a deadly setup. Standing in the shadows of the crime scene is **Maya Lin**-a cold, fiercely independent fugitive shadow-weaver whose own right arm is slowly turning into brittle stone from her magic's brutal backlash. Ambushed by the Special Investigation Unit and hunted by magic-crushing Null-fields, the cynical ex-Inquisitor and the desperate witch are forced into a fragile, razor-thin alliance. They must survive the night, clear their names, and navigate the treacherous, neon-lit underworld known as *The Nocturne*. But the conspiracy runs deeper than a single murder. Their investigation points straight to Victoria Thorne, a ruthless pharmaceutical tycoon and the secret leader of an ancient vampire cult. With the Blood Moon approaching, Victoria prepares a massive, city-wide ritual to tear down the protective Veil, sacrificing millions of human souls to awaken a slumbering, ancient deity. As New London teeter-totters on the brink of collapse, Ethan's past sins catch up to him. To stop a god and save what's left of his broken world.

    A hidden prophecy. Two warring "vampire" factions. One city on the brink of chaos. Leo has always known something about him was different-stronger, faster, and darker than he could explain. Raised by adoptive parents in Dallas, his past is a mystery. So is the strange pull inside him. When a trail of subtle clues leads him to the shadow-drenched streets of Malmö, Sweden, he hopes to find answers. What he finds instead is a city teetering on the edge of a supernatural civil war. On one side are the Everborns, second-class "vampires" led by the enigmatic Jericho. On the other are the Night Walkers, the "pure-blood" elite who will stop at nothing to maintain control. At the center of the conflict lies a stolen item and a blurry prophecy of a boy who will either unite or destroy both worlds. Some believe Leo is that savior. Others think he's just a chess piece in a much larger game. Caught between survival and loyalty, fate and ideology, Leo must navigate a foreign landscape where the rules are unknown. Everborns or Night Walkers-he must choose a side. The Everborn is a brisk, visceral Urban Fantasy Thriller for fans of Jim Butcher's Twelve Months and Lena Meydan's Twilight Forever Rising. "Nixon's series opener pits dueling vampire factions against each other in a brisk, tense urban fantasy where neither side occupies clean moral ground. Thanks to Nixon's skill at action sequences-visceral fight scenes and a chilling cinema-worthy vampire feast-the revelations land with genuine force. A confident series opener." - BookLife
