Discworld meets Dresden Files!  Rain-soaked streets. A city on the edge. A deadly drug spreading like wildfire. In Valderia, sixteen bodies are just another week—until one of them belongs to someone you loved. Ridley, a PI with more grit than sense, won’t accept that his mentor’s death was just another overdose. With ex-cop Sally Nairo at his side, he tears through the city’s shadows, hellbent on vengeance. Their search for the truth will lead from the glitz of the theatre stage, to the brothels of the wealthy elite, uncovering a dark twisted secret in one of the wealthiest families in Valderia.  Across the city, Rufi Chaw’Drak, a Goblin enforcer, walks a dangerous line. Tasked with finding the source of the poison devastating the city, he’s hiding one crucial fact: he sold it. Now he’s scrambling to cover his tracks, and hunt down the anonymous supplier before he gets thrown into the bottom of a tar pit with his throat slit. Rufi’s mission will set him on a direct collision course with half the Villains in Valderia and one of the most powerful criminals in the Free Forests.  In Valderia, loyalty is a liability, the past never stays buried, and the truth can be as deadly as the lies. The Ghosts of Valderia is a dark, pulse-pounding urban fantasy noir where survival demands sacrifice, and no one gets out clean. This is a completed story and will span 68 chapters with a weekly upload schedule of Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
