Thriller

Death was never meant to be played with — until he made it a game. Draven Kaine, once the Empire’s most feared necromancer, was executed for treason after raising the dead army that destroyed his own homeland. But when the veil between worlds cracks open, he awakens in his own coffin — alive, cursed, and bound to the ghost of the man he murdered. To survive, Draven must hunt the escaped souls that now haunt the living. Each spirit carries a secret piece of a greater puzzle — a game orchestrated by an ancient god who calls himself The Reaper King. Every round of this deadly game demands a sacrifice: a memory, a life, or a soul. But when Draven discovers the Reaper King’s final target is the woman he once loved, he must decide… Will he play by death’s rules — or rewrite them?

PREMISE Damang, a former special forces operative (Military Scholar) who returns to his village in the interior of Kalimantan, finds his homeland beginning to "sicken." A multinational corporation called The Andalusian Order has arrived under the guise of a green energy project. However, Damang smells blood. Led by Elias Thorne, a charismatic occultist who possesses telekinetic powers and the ability to manipulate blood, the sect is actually searching for the "Heart of the Earth"—the largest spiritual energy point in Kalimantan—to awaken a dark entity from the ancient Andalusian era that they worship. The sect did not come empty-handed. They brought The Paladins, a mercenary force modified with dark magic, making them bulletproof and granting them abnormal speed. When his father (the Tribal Chief) is brutally slaughtered before his eyes using a magical ritual, Damang realizes that his assault rifle is not enough. Guided by the spirit of the Panglima Burung through blood-soaked dreams, Damang must undergo a forbidden ritual to awaken the Flying Mandau and master high-level invulnerability. A great war erupts: Machine guns vs. poison blowdarts that hunt their targets. European blood magic vs. the ancestral spirit powers of the Dayak. Damang must hunt down the sect members one by one within a jungle that can transform into a deadly labyrinth, before Elias Thorne completes the eclipse ritual that will plunge Kalimantan into eternal darkness.

Elliot Carter thought he had left Harrison Creek behind for good. The small Appalachian town, steeped in shadows and secrets, was a place of pain—the memory of his mother’s tragic death and Lily Rose’s haunting disappearance lingering for years. It had been 20 years since Lily vanished without a trace, and now, Elliot is drawn back to the place he swore to escape. The call comes: his father, Dr. Robert Carter, is dying. Elliot returns to Harrison Creek, but it’s not just his father who pulls him back. The mystery of Lily’s disappearance has never let him go. As a child, he accepted the town’s story—that Lily was simply forgotten—but now, as an adult, Elliot knows better. The town hides something far darker. Dr. Robert Carter, the town’s respected doctor, has been hiding something. Elliot begins to unravel cryptic clues suggesting his father’s involvement in Lily’s case is deeper—and more sinister—than anyone could have guessed. With the help of Vera Larkin, a childhood friend turned journalist, Elliot uncovers a web of lies and moral corruption. The more he digs, the more the townspeople close ranks, and the more violent the threats become. Elliot soon discovers the unthinkable: Lily’s disappearance wasn’t an accident—it was planned. And the man responsible for silencing her forever was none other than his own father. As the investigation spirals, Elliot must confront a chilling truth: his father’s dark past may cost him everything, including his own soul. Some truths are better left buried. But in Harrison Creek, the truth always finds a way to surface.

When Detective Alex Mercer is called to a gruesome murder scene, he finds a single clue beside the body: an envelope marked ECLIPSE. At first, it looks like the return of a long-dead serial killer.

Then comes the impossible: a message from Daniel Cross, Alex's former partner who supposedly died five years ago. As the city spirals toward chaos and a mysterious operation known as Phase Two begins, Alex is forced to question everyone he trusts—including the people closest to him. But the deeper he digs, the more terrifying the truth becomes. Because Eclipse isn't just hunting victims. It's preparing to expose a secret powerful enough to bring an entire city to its knees.

A son-in-law labeled as "useless" by family but ends up revealing hidden talents, wealth, or leadership.

She buried her husband three years ago. She's been visiting his grave every year since, telling herself the same lie: that grief fades, that closure is real, that Adrian is gone. Then a photo lands in her phone. A billionaire at a gala, laughing at something off camera. Adrian's face, on a stranger's body, wearing a stranger's name. Elena tells herself it's coincidence, until she's sitting across from Damian Voss in his own office and he says her name, a name that was never on her business card. Damian doesn't remember her. He doesn't remember much of anything before the coma that rebuilt him from nothing, a new identity, a new life, built on top of a silence nobody in his life has ever questioned out loud. But somebody built that silence on purpose. And somebody is still protecting it. The closer Elena gets to the truth, the more it costs her, and the more it costs the people around her. Because the man who buried her husband's identity didn't do it to save him. He did it because a dead man can't testify. Some graves don't hold what you buried in them. Some marriages don't end the way you think they did. And some men come back not because they escaped, but because someone finally let them go.

'I didn't kill him' I whispered my camera shaking in my hands while I looked at the blood on the marble floor. 'I know' the man in shadows whispered, his voice like velvet on rough ground. 'But the world believes that I did and you are the only one to attest to my innocence'. Elara Vance is a forensic photographer of the wealthy; a woman who sees the truth through a camera lens, and Silas Vane is the heir to a bankrupt empire who lives off the carrion of his enemies (known as the 'Vulture'), but when Elara catches him in the act of a murder she isn't supposed to witness he proposes a deal: either become his bride and his 'Glass Alibi' or she is the next body he will require her to photograph. In a world of predators can the man keeping her prisoner actually be her executioner...or her salvation.

He can’t see the dark. But the dark can see him. When a cosmic eclipse rips humanity’s shadows away, they don't just vanish...they hunt. Across the vertical concrete jungle of New York City, billions of detached silhouettes are slaughtering their owners, stepping into their skin to become hollow, malevolent Mimics. For Zyrus Miranda, a blind martial arts master, the apocalypse is just another Tuesday. Immune to the psychological terror paralyzing the sighted world, Zyrus navigates the pitch-black ruins through pure vibration and lethal precision. Together with Dixy Alvarez, a fierce, quick-witted parkour instructor who becomes his eyes in the chaos, Zyrus builds an underground resistance, teaching survivors how to fight blind to survive. But Zyrus’s greatest battle isn't with the monsters outside...it’s with his own rogue shadow. In a breathless, pitch-black alley duel, Zyrus’s iron will achieves the impossible: he subdues his shadow, forcing it into a symbiotic, weapon-shifting duo. Now, with a lethal shadow-partner bound to his carbon-fiber staff and Dixy fighting at his side, Zyrus must launch a vertical assault up One World Trade Center to shatter the cosmic core. The light is fading. Can a blind man guide humanity out of eternal darkness?
