From the battlefields of the 1950s to the neon-lit skylines of tomorrow and the uncharted reaches of deep space, history bends and war rages. When an alien invasion ignites across New York, Detroit, and distant planets, survival means more than fighting—it means rewriting time itself. A hardened drill instructor prepares soldiers across eras, forging warriors for a war they may never live to see. A lone cyborg scours the ruins of civilization, haunted by memories of a past that keeps shifting. A vigilante prowls Detroit’s streets, his war personal, his justice unrelenting.

Black Violet is more than a detective agency. It’s the last defense against mysteries that rewrite reality. Run by three women bound by fate and fractured timelines, the agency unravels cases whispered through forgotten letters, broken timepieces, and photographs that shouldn't exist. Across ten interconnected investigations—each darker than the last—Dakota, Brooke, and Alice confront ghosts both literal and metaphorical, uncovering a conspiracy of erased identities, buried legacies, and a force that’s been archiving their lives before they were even born.

They say there’s a man who doesn’t stay long. A doctor with no license, a name that changes like wind, and eyes that reflect too much moonlight. Where he walks, pain quiets. Fever breaks. The broken breathe again. But he never asks for thanks. And he never stays for sunrise. Some call him a monster. Some call him a miracle. He’s both. And neither. Because Richard Jinnings doesn’t run from his curse— he carries it like penance.

Beneath war-torn Europe, a vampire cabal begins devouring history—rewriting the legacy of humankind’s greatest minds into immortal propaganda. Ink fades. Names vanish. But one time traveler refuses silence. He journeys through fractured time to summon four literary titans: Edgar Allan Poe, Mary Shelley, H. P. Lovecraft, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Together, they form a covenant to fight the vampiric apocalypse—not with swords, but with words. As stories unravel and alternate selves threaten to consume them, these authors must decide: Can memory survive when monsters control the pen?

Tony Rossi was an Italian kid growing up on the streets of Chicago in the 1920s. His father is sick; his mother is working herself to death to care for three children, yet all Tony can think about is becoming an entertainer, an actor, a Star! However that is just a pipedream for a boy living in a poverty-stricken world, the reality is that gangsters run the city in the time in which he lives.

In a world where ghosts are goofy, mischievous, and sometimes heartbreakingly human, one mismatched trio of investigators has spent their days wrangling vending machines, haunted camp counselors, and sentient foot-ticklers. But when a forgotten town beckons from the edge of memory—a place where time folds in on itself and even the living forget they exist—they’re pulled into a final confrontation with something ancient, hungry, and familiar.

What if the future remembered you before you were born? Vera was never meant to lead. Crafted from Anthemis legacy and buried code, she was designed to obey—until she chose not to. Now, in the ashes of Sulen’s war-torn vaults, whispers of her final stand echo across the galaxy.

Cash Hollow: It is a short strip of road nestled between hills cutting through between two streets, Lake View and Austin springs. I grew up in the heart of the '80s; that was my era and, in my opinion, one of the best times for a young man to grow up.

Manny appears throughout the Noir universe and hints of his past are shown but never fully revealed, that is until now. He needs to be seen as he was and what he came to and how he got there. It is no secret this is my favorite book to write to date. In fact, if I am not mistaken, my very first full origin story and I loved every minute of it. So much so I did not want it to end, and being that it is an origin I had to decide where I wanted the cutoff of his story to be.

When he comes back from fighting in Europe, he finds the city is upside down, there are new rules in place, new criminals have taken over, and to make matters even more fun, his wife has left him but returns with some gangsters hot on her heels. Did she take the money and kill her "gangster" boyfriend? Or is she wholly innocent? And what of Doc Weaver? He is now a turn coat and wanted by the mob as well and in the middle is Jack Manson.

This book does fall into the same universe as my other series of books I call the Noir series. In those books you can hear about the gritty world of detectives, reporters, and gangsters. Well, that world exists here as well except here you have men and women who are willing to work outside of the law on both sides to get a job done. Whereas the other books focus on the aforementioned detectives, private and otherwise, here the focus is more on the ones that hide who they are.
