Can you save the world while damning yourself?
The Silent Season is a neo-noir corporate thriller written from the perspective of a contract killer who insists there’s a right way to murder, even as each escalation sinks him deeper into moral ambiguity, until his principles become weapons in themselves.
Constantly wanting to be more, he deals with loss, love, family, and a world that needs saving. Will these challenges make him stronger, or break him? Or both?

The cold air rushed past in a steady roar as my wingsuit caught. Below, the city was swallowed in a black, boiling mass, lightning thrashing about in silent rage.
Set against a collapsing society of corporate rot and casual oppression, it’s a story about how systems break people, how violence seduces, and how even the most hardened killer might still carry some sliver of hope, or delusion.
There are no easy answers here. Instead, expect sharp dialogue, visceral action, and unsettling violence, all wrapped in a creeping sense of philosophical unease.

“And I’ll even say ‘you’re welcome’ to your missing ‘thank you’. My unsolicited gift to you, [redacted], the success that you’re too afraid to want.”
This is not a tale of redemption
The Silent Season doesn’t care what shelf it’s on. Crime noir, corporate thriller, biopunk horror, literary fiction even. It only cares about telling the best story it can. Genre conventions are nothing but tools to it.
Some will call this genre-hopping. I call it writing for an audience who dares to look beyond the framing. This book has something to say about violence, power, and complicity, and it won’t stay in a lane to say it.

Even if I wanted to, which I don’t, I wouldn’t have the bandwidth. I’m doing most things myself, in between my day job and raising a wonderful but very energetic toddler. With the editing, the website maintenance, and the social media, I’m overworked as it is.
I’ll only send you emails for reasons like:

My book is the only thing I’m trying to sell you, because I think you’ll enjoy it, as I enjoyed writing it.
