Science Fiction Adventure
FREE
In the shadows of Washington, DC, monsters aren’t just real—they’re on a government watchlist.
John Smoke is an ex-con with a violent past and a reputation that bites harder than any werewolf. Freed under suspicious circumstances, he’s tasked with an impossible job: track down supernatural criminals who defy belief—and law. Assigned to babysit him is FBI Agent Sidney Shaw, a by-the-book sharpshooter with a mind for justice and a chip on her shoulder.
Together, they chase down shifters, unravel ancient conspiracies, and uncover a shadow network of power that infects everything from the back alleys to the Capitol steps. But nothing could prepare them for what’s buried beneath the city—or what’s hunting them in return.
With every name they cross off the Black Slate, the danger grows, the stakes rise, and the line between enemy and ally blurs. Smoke may be a wild card, but when monsters play politics, he’s exactly the kind of weapon the world needs.
These first five books ignite a thrilling saga of violence, mystery, and twisted loyalty—a supernatural manhunt where the only way out is through the fire.
