Vampire noir at its darkest. A damaged detective. A missing child. And something ancient wearing the face of Parisian glamour. Christian Le Cozh didn't come to Paris to be a hero. But the city has decided he'll do.
Paris, 1925. Fleeing the shadows of London, French private detective Christian Le Cozh arrives in the City of Light carrying wounds no doctor can mend: the scars of the trenches, a bottle never far from hand, and a marriage left in ruins. When his young daughter is taken, he’s forced into a desperate hunt through streets where danger hides behind every smile.
From the catacombs beneath the city to rain-slick boulevards where deals are struck in whispers, Christian’s search throws him into the orbit of Tasmin Fitzgerald, the rough-and-ready Yves Dalle—loyal to the last and quick with his fists—and the returning chanteuse Louise Beacham, whose beauty may be the most dangerous thing in Paris. In a city where every ally has an angle, finding the truth might cost him more than his life.

Noir meets the occult in gaslit 1920s London. A sceptical detective. A dead woman who isn't. And a conspiracy that turns the city's shadows into something far worse than metaphor.

A LitRPG Saga
Revenge is a dish best served with poison, steel, and a majestic golden eagle.
After being brutally stripped of his gear and dignity by the sadistic thief Loki, Barcud deletes his account in a fit of rage--only to realise he left a legendary Easter Egg behind. Reborn as an Elf Ranger, he returns to the hyper-realistic world of the Greenwood to hunt his tormentor.
Joined by an eccentric cast--including the narcissistic Runesmith Harald and the operatic battlefield terror Romeo el Mejor--Barcud must master the “mechanical necessity” of the forest to survive. From the Forest of Nightmares to the flaming floors of the Royal Palace, the hunt is on.
In the Greenwood, your stats are your life--and Barcud is playing for blood.
