"Nothing good ever came without sacrifice. Some of us just found clarity in the darkness of those shadows." *** Nyx Monroe grew up with terrifying tales of golden-eyed beasts with nightmarish fangs and murderous tendencies but as time passed, she forgot about them, convinced they were just scary stories. When her father, Azeil Monroe, is tasked with solving the murder plaguing the coastal city of Celacali, it's a chance at a fresh start. However, Nyx discovers everything is not what it seems beneath the veneer of the popular tourist location, also known as the City of the Dead.

They've been waiting for twenty-five years to exact their revenge for a debt long overdue, luring Nyx and her father back to where it all began. Whilst they distract Azeil with one murder case after the other, their focus shifts to Nyx. Soon, there's nowhere left for her to run-to hide-from the true beasts of legend, or from the darkness of her past.Complete

A visit to a meditation retreat changes his whole mindset and a mysterious and beautiful nightclub owner who moonlights as a sorceress seems to understand his mind better than he does.

The histories lurking there aren't the ones we read about in history books and some of them are infected with the future. The underworld is full of high-tech gangsters, artificial super-intelligences, and witchcraft wielding criminals spreading rumors and illusions. Rumors of a time-machine underground where the past and future collide. William is determined to bring order to this dark chaos growing beneath the city. With the help of Samantha, a young citizen journalist, and a mysterious spiritual teacher somehow linked with his own personal past, he hopes to try and control whatever this unseen thing is before it is too late.Complete
A VEIL IN THE SHADE
Wisnokee. A city where the night devours the weak, and justice is as twisted as the criminals who rule its streets. Corruption thrives in every alley, and the law is just another game played by those with power. Detective Elroy Stephens has spent years trying to clean up the filth, but some cases refuse to be solved in the light. That's why, when the sun sets, he becomes something else. He becomes The Veil. A masked vigilante, a shadow in the dark, the last judgment for those the system refuses to punish. But Wisnokee is bleeding, and something far more sinister has emerged. Bodies begin appearing-hanging from streetlights, from courthouse rafters, from the bones of a dying city. Each corpse bears a mark-a sentence passed by an executioner long thought to be a ghost. They call him The Hangman. And his trials have just begun. Now, The Veil must descend into the abyss of Wisnokee's underworld, facing ruthless crime lords, corrupt officials, and a cult of justice-driven fanatics who believe the only way to cleanse the city is by leaving it hanging. As the lines between justice and vengeance blur, Elroy will be forced to confront his own demons. Because in Wisnokee, the only verdict that matters is the one written in blood. In Wisnokee, justice isn't blind... it's hanging by a thread.Complete
