Ebook: Neon Blood and Velvet Lies

A covert heist spirals into urban warfare as Deckard K. Ross returns to the ruins of Manchester for a high-society Europa political dinner that masks a ruthless power exchange between empires. Alongside an Afghan fighter from an older war, a dazzling scout-thief, and a silk-clad financier with bloodline power, Deckard infiltrates the elite—only to trigger gunfights, betrayals, and a brutal knife duel when corporate counter-intelligence closes in. The night ends not with champagne, but with sirens, burning reputations, and a sewer-soaked escape that exposes corruption at the highest level and marks the crew as untouchable enemies of every major power bloc.
