In the shadows of St. Louis, the forgotten are disappearing.
When mutilated bodies begin turning up in abandoned buildings across the city, the killings look ritualistic, savage, and designed to spread fear. The victims are unhoused men and women-people society barely notices until they become headlines.
But someone is noticing them now. Someone is hunting them.
Cole Strayton, known to the criminal underworld as the vigilante Darkshadow, finds himself pulled into a nightmare far more disturbing than gang wars or organized crime. As he and his covert team investigate the murders, they uncover a conspiracy driven by greed, power, and a horrifying vision for the future of downtown St. Louis.
Behind designer suits and corporate boardrooms hides a secret cabal determined to clean up the city by any means necessary.
And they have money, mercenaries, political influence... and killers willing to butcher innocent people to send a message.
As bodies pile up and tensions explode across the city, Darkshadow is forced into a brutal war fought in abandoned buildings, hidden compounds, church basements, and the blood-soaked streets of St. Louis itself. But the deeper he digs, the more he realizes something even darker may be watching from behind the scenes.
Something tied to his own violent past.
Now hunted by assassins, targeted by powerful elites, and stalked by the ghosts of his former life, Darkshadow must decide how far he is willing to go to protect the people everyone else has abandoned.
Because in this city, the forgotten dead are no longer staying buried.
Perfect for fans of gritty vigilante thrillers, modern pulp action, hard-boiled noir, and relentless urban suspense, Darkshadow: The Forgotten Dead delivers brutal action, conspiracies, psychological tension, and a relentless antihero willing to step into the darkness when no one else will.
