Sinopse

“IT ALL BEGINS WITH Taylor Spielberg, a 28-year-old crypto prodigy who rides the post-Trump market surge to billionaire status — thanks to bold bets on Bitcoin, Dogecoin, and Tesla (thank you, Elon Musk). But Taylor doesn’t just want wealth — he wants cultural immortality. He wants Modigliani’s Nu Couché.At the center: Evan Peterson, a seemingly flawless American investor and art broker, corrupted by ambition.”
 
“Beside him: Rebecca Langley Peterson, a brilliant federal prosecutor torn between justice and loyalty.In the shadows: a master forger, a soldier-turned-ghost-thief, and a young tech mogul willing to rewrite history.When Nu Couché vanishes from Guo Lian Huang’s ultra-secure Shanghai villa, the countdown begins.But this isn’t just a theft — it’s a declaration. A humiliation. A fracture.Guo Lian Huang, a powerful Chinese billionaire and art collector, launches a quiet but relentless manhunt — from opulent Singapore lounges to Eswatini palaces, London hideouts to secretive Scottish estates, New York’s shadowy freeports to seaside Hamptons retreats.What unfolds is a shocking revelation:Behind every masterpiece lies a war for power.”

    Some secrets should stay buried. 
    When renowned architect Arania Webb returns to Bristol Zoo — once her childhood sanctuary but now a derelict ruin — she discovers her late father’s hidden underground lab, which harbours a dark obsession. 
    Inside, she uncovers his journals documenting twisted experiments to fuse arachnid DNA with humans, creating unnatural creatures that blur the line between species. As Arania descends into the shadowy depths and explores further, she realises the terrifying extent of her beloved father’s attempts to play god. 
    With demolition charges set to raze the derelict zoo in minutes, Arania has little time to process the ethical transgression and madness that drove her father down an unholy path before the truth is buried forever. 
    But when the site manager stumbles upon her macabre discovery, Arania knows she must act swiftly to protect her family’s legacy — and her own future. 
    Will she find a way to escape the ruins with her father’s monstrous secrets? Or will the horrors hidden beneath the zoo ultimately consume them both? 
    In this short story, J.F. Penn weaves a tale of dark secrets, genetic aberration, and a legacy that blurs the lines between ethical transgression and scientific ambition, a narrative that is as much about the inner darkness of human nature as it is about the monsters we create.

    Hunting a serial killer through a simulation controlled by Nazi-influencers. DEVIL IN THE PALE MOONLIGHT is an adult cyberpunk psycho-thriller set 100 years in the future.2120: Texas has seceded from the union and become a mecca for white supremacists. After a century of war, environmental strife, and 'the 2nd Dark Age,' the New Reich is the leading world power via control of the insidious Animus Civitas technology — a simulation that mesmerizes the mind while drawing energy from the body's central nervous system. Millions languish in 'the Siv' caught hopelessly in indentured-streaming contracts to the richest influencers of the New Reich while their families watch their bodies wither in the Real. A fledgling hero, the last Heir-Architect, joins the Siv to find an unexpected inheritance waiting for him and begins a war to rescue all people stuck in mental slavery. Horror takes hold of the simulation when a serial-killer begins recreating crimes from the past, their victims inexplicably dying in the Real — corpses set in a twisted grin that is the killer's grisly calling card.

    Is she doing God's work, or something far more sinister? 
    Safely hidden behind a high fence that shields it from the rest of the world, Kinship Care provides a safe haven for children from City of England. Kinship Care is supported by the Happiness-Program... but there's a catch. To keep the food shipments coming, program director Enyd must provide fraudulent "proof" of the plague ravaging the city--photos of children suffering--to deter those tempted to leave the program. 
    It's been easy enough with a sinner like Ava, the only Unchipped child at Kinship Care, who keeps violating the rules by trying to contact her mother. Surely God would approve of the relatively mild punishments Ava has brought upon herself. 
    But now they want more. More shocking material. More pain. More punishment. More proof to show the good people in the city what it's like for those who defy the program. How far will Enyd go before she says enough? 
    CONTENT WARNING: child abuse. While not a main theme of the book or even described in detail, some readers may want to read the reviews or have a friend check out the book before reading.
