The game is rigged, but Dorian Faust never plays by the rules.
In the glitzy shadows of Angelseye, where power is bought with gold and lost with a whisper, Dorian Faust is a man who knows how to survive. An artificer, a gambler, and an investigator with a reputation for getting his hands dirty, Faust has spent years navigating the delicate balance of loyalty and deception. But when he becomes the prime suspect in a high-profile murder-framed for a crime he didn't commit-he finds himself dealing with a different kind of game-one where every move feels like it was played before he even sat at the table.
As Faust and his partner Rowan Ashford follow the twisting trail of evidence, the case drags them from the smoky back rooms of high-stakes casinos to the smoky back rooms of high-end gentlemen's clubs to the glittering floors of high-stakes casinos. the deeper Faust digs, the more he realizes he's caught in something far bigger than a simple murder. And at the heart of it all is Nyyco, the fiery, indomitable captain of Night Shadow-the woman he loves with every fiber of his soul.
With enemies circling and time running out, Faust knows one thing for certain: this case isn't about justice-it's about power. And in a city where secrets are more valuable than coin, the right lie can be deadlier than any blade.
A gripping Noir fantasy infused with razor-sharp wit, smoky intrigue, and slow-burning tension, White Lies and Velvet Smoke is perfect for fans of hardboiled detectives, high-stakes crime, and stories where every truth is just another well-spun lie.
