In this omnibus of psychological noir, The Neo-Noir Diaries brings together the full trilogy of novellas by An Wo Long: Runner, Spider, and Kitten.
An uncomfortably real look into the minds of the broken, the dangerous, and the damned. Told across three novellas, the series explores the psychological disintegration of those victims of circumstance rendered invisible by society: a killer without empathy, a cop without a cause, and a girl no one saved.Each is, in their own way, a victim and a monster-surviving in a morally bankrupt, nameless city where justice is just another fiction.
Their stories don't just intersect-they echo. Each voice adds to a single, growing, cacophonic scream in the dark.
RUNNER: Diary of a Parallel KillerAn exploration of the psyche of an unrelenting killer who thrives in plain sight. With a methodical approach and an unsettling calm, Spider pulls readers into a world where morality is absent. Set against the backdrop of an anonymous city, the story explores the complexities of human nature, the seductive pull of power, and the haunting question:
What would you do if you could get away with anything?SPIDER: Diary of a Dead Cop
A disgraced detective living on the edge of morality and madness. Dragged from the gutter by a reclusive genius obsessed with solving the unsolvable, Runner is thrust into a world of killers, cannibals, and conspiracies. Fueled by addiction and driven by a fractured sense of justice, he hunts monsters no one else believes exist-embracing his own existential collapse along the way.
Is he a savior in the shadows-or just another monster with a badge?
KITTEN: Diary of a Runaway
Abandoned by her adoptive family, brutalized, and forgotten. A young runaway learns what it takes to survive in a world that has never been safe. What begins as a cry for help becomes something far more terrifying as she transforms from a victim into one of the most prolific serial killers the city has ever known. Told in the unfiltered voice of a woman stripped of morality, identity, and humanity, Kitten is a raw and disturbing meditation on trauma, exploitation, and the lies we are led to believe.
Unapologetically bleak, psychologically intense, and morally transgressive, The Neo-Noir Diaries is a trilogy that dares you to keep reading. CONTENT WARNING: These books contain graphic depictions of violence, abuse, sex, drug use, and trauma.Reader discretion is strongly advised.
