Embarrassed to bring you sci-fi detective books I’m actually really proud of. Champion of the old-ternet. One third mytharc, two thirds monster-of-the-week, all apologetic British dad. He/him 💙📚✍️

listen I know about Tron Ares but we all still agree to keep taking the movies as long as we keep getting the soundtracks right?

Alt: a man in a futuristic suit is standing in a dark room with blue lights. He’s dancing to some funky beats, and it’s that guy, what’s his name now? You know, from the movie about Brian Clough? And wasn’t he also Tony Blair at some point? Yeah that guy. Anyway it’s a pretty funny gif, no?

Only natural for a little hopelessness to set in. If you will keep her in that cabin just to watch her so.

It’s The Woman in Cabin 1 I’m most concerned for.

It’s been weeks.

A cover for alternate universe detective thriller WIRE CITY KILLS. Blurb reads: Dazzling metropolis. Capitalist dystopia. Welcome to Wire City… When hot-shot rookie investigator DC Kal Vickers accepts a mysterious invitation to swap his cozy London beat for the glittering tech capital of the world, he quickly realizes he’s in way over his head: impossible technology; blatantly evil corporations; well-adjusted AIs with absolutely no hidden agendas* … just a few of the things his new partner, fiery technophobe Detective Julietta Brousse, has zero interest in preparing him for. The team bonding will have to wait, as the unorthodox duo is thrown straight into action when infamous billionaire tech playboy Tyrell Gomes meets a grisly death in his penthouse office in the Tangle – the exclusive high-rise district at the center of Silicon Valley’s neon sprawl, and the richest five mile square on Earth. As the detectives dig deeper into the city's dark heart they begin to unravel a shocking conspiracy that goes far beyond simple murder; a twisted saga of profound love, insatiable greed, and ambition so boundless it could change the course of global history. Nothing in this corporate hellscape is as it seems, and with the stakes higher than they ever could have imagined, finding the killer becomes a race against time: Who would want Gomes dead? Why was he killed on the eve of his company’s takeover by a fierce rival? And just what is the classified project that threatens to place the very future of humanity in the hands of quite simply the worst people imaginable? *not a guarantee Perfect for fans of Blake Crouch, John Scalzi, and Cory Doctorow, don't miss the smart and witty transatlantic crime thriller that's The X-Files meets Chinatown by way of Slow Horses and Beverly Hills Cop This standalone book requires no further reading to enjoy. No form of artificial intelligence was used at any stage of the creation of this book or its cover.

Cyberpunk plots from The Cain Series found in the real world:

Billionaire hires mercenaries outside of all jurisdictions to do the unthinkable.

Fact or fiction? (Both: the fascists just earmarked $10B to hire the unqualified to kidnap the vulnerable)
