Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a New York Times–bestselling author: A former spy is recruited to unmask a vampire hunter in this Locus Award Winner. James Asher, a retired member of the Queen’s secret service in Edwardian England, has settled into quietude as an Oxford professor of philology with his physician wife, Lydia. But his peace is shattered when he’s confronted by a pale aristocratic Spaniard named Don Simon Ysidro, who makes an outlandish claim that someone is killing his fellow vampires of London, and he needs James’s help to ferret the culprit out. The request also comes with a threatening ultimatum: Should James fail, both he and his wife will die. With James’s talent for espionage and Lydia’s scientific acumen and keen analytical mind, the couple begins an investigation that takes them from the crypts of London to the underworld circles of the unliving to the grisly depths of a charnel house in Paris. Now James and Lydia must believe in the unbelievable—if they’re to survive another night in the shadow of Don Simon Ysidro.

Kat runs into Kim, the Phoenix a Life Closer or Legal Assassin. At first, Kim is going to kill Kat for seeing her face while on a Closing, but she finds out that Kat is the key. The key to what, Kim does not know, but until she does, Kim will let Kat live, and so they form a shaky partnership. Kat has no memory beyond a year ago, and she wants to discover who she is. Kim discovers that her mother was murdered, and she wants to find out who killed her and end their life with her own hands. Shades Of Gray #1 Noir, City Shrouded By Darkness 2024 Edition: Noir was a mega-city plagued by a sun-blocking mass called Dry Clouds that had mysteriously appeared three decades earlier. The Dry Clouds covered half the planet and forced those living under them to live in endless night. In this world, corporations were in charge, and breaking your contract with them could mean the termination of your life. Kimberly Griffin a.k.a. the Phoenix existed in a world of death. She closed people for a living. It was a lonely demeaning existence, though, she wouldn't admit it. There was nothing to drive her in the bleak reality until one day she ran into Kat. Kat, also known as the Pandora Project, was hunted by bio-mechas called Un-Men. She was an experiment of the Sphinx Corporation, and they were testing her to see if she could become the ultimate weapon. Kat refused to be a killer and tried to discover the truth behind her existence. Could she be a new form of bio-mechas? Pandora of ancient times opened a box and let all good escape. Would Pandora be the hope the planet needed? Or would she destroy the world? **Shades of Gray Science Fiction Serial Series ** 1. Noir, City Shrouded By Darkness 2. From Moscow, With Love 3. Cerberus Versus Pandora 4. Sisters Enter this dystopian world where corporations rule the people like kings and queens and personal freedom is an unheard-of concept. The Earth is slowly dying as mile-thick clouds known as Dry Clouds prevent the sun from shining down on half the planet. They mysteriously appeared one day and slowly spread across the remaining planet, and if they are not stopped, the Earth is doomed. Many mysteries abound in this apocalyptic science fiction series. Where did the Dry Clouds come from and how can they be stopped? Who is Kat? And who killed Kim's mom? These are just a few of the unanswered questions that start this sci-fi action-adventure series. Prologue: On a parallel Earth, thick puffy barriercumulus also known as Dry Clouds covered the sky and prevented the glimmer of twilight from shining on the city of Noir. For three decades, the polluted high-troposphere looming clouds covered half the planet and left part of the world to live in endless night. The mile-thick clouds yielded petroleum-based contaminated water dubbed Tainted Rain and polluted the air, so they were named Dry Clouds for leaving half the planet without drinkable water. At first, scientists believed pollution caused the great cloud barrier but that theory proved to be false. What caused the Dry Clouds to form baffled scientists, and how to reverse them eluded reason, and only technology's constant battle with nature has kept the dark city alive. Man's need for conquest expanded Noir to cover more than half a continent of what would have been called North America, and Noir became a Mega-city. It was the only one in the world. Over the last twenty years, Transgenics and bio-mechas evolved at a breakneck pace. Transgenics were genetically modified organisms with an extra-genome and were mostly plants produced to survive without the sun. Bio-mechas were robots resembling living things. In this world, corporations not governments ruled the people, creating a society where profit set policy and dictated life. Those who resided in Noir were touched by darkness, and the light of goodness seemed a forgotten memory and they... they lived in the gray —Shades of Gray.
