Thriller

Los Angeles, the City of Angels... fallen. Beneath the glow of Hollywood lights and the eternal gridlock of the I-405, there is a world that moves in silence. Raymond Vance is not an ordinary rideshare driver. He is a Ghost Driver, available only through the RideShare app’s Dark Mode between 12:00 a.m. and 4:00 a.m. The rules are simple and absolute: Don’t ask. Don’t look back. Change of plan equals ten times the fare. That night should have been easy. Pick up a passenger in Downtown LA, drop them off in Santa Monica. Instead, the passenger who gets in is Leo, a ten-year-old boy with autism, clutching a military-grade encrypted tablet. Seconds later, an armored SUV owned by a Private Military Contractor slams into the side of Raymond’s car. Leo is not just a child. He is the Master Key sought by Mexican cartels and corrupt California senators. Dragged into a lethal conspiracy, Raymond is forced to push his Dodge Charger through the streets of California. There is no government support, no law. Only asphalt, gasoline, and bullets. Tonight, there is only one choice: a five-star rating, or die on the streets of LA.

Now, after a millennium has passed, the Demon Emperor is reborn as a poor youth named Aron in a remote village—without power, without memories, and without any remnants of his past glory. The world has forgotten him, and the holy sects have enjoyed a fragile peace, establishing their dominance without threat. However, fate has other plans. As Xar'thos's memories begin to return, an ancient entity known as the "Demon Empire System" activates within him.
