FAOLAN O'CONNOR NOVELS

In the dark underbelly of 1930s New York City, Faolan O'Connor has made a name for himself as a ruthless hitman, but finds himself cornered by his past. Enter Darcy Killian, a vampire offering Faolan a tantalizing promise of immortality. But this new life comes with a price—a plunge into a ruthless world where violence, wealth, and power reign supreme.
Driven by ambition and guilt, Faolan fights his way up the ranks in a battle to justify his sins with success. He’s learned the hard way that relationships are vulnerabilities and friends are just enemies in disguise, but he also knows that he can’t conquer a city alone.
With the sharp mind of an emotionally scarred genius and the fierce loyalty of a compassionate call girl by his side, Faolan assembles a crew willing to challenge Killian's iron grip. But as he confronts his own humanity within the heart of a cold-blooded game, he wonders: Will his newfound compassion be his greatest strength or his most fatal flaw? With his life and the future of the city he loves at stake, can Faolan play his cards right or is he drawing dead?
Faolan O'Connor runs New York City the old-fashioned way—with charm, violence, and an army of vampyr gangsters. But when a mysterious Chinese demon-ghost starts devouring Chinatown's criminal underworld, Faolan faces an enemy that bullets can't kill and must confront the savage nature he's tried to keep in check.
As if an immortal crime boss with an eating disorder wasn't enough trouble, the aristocratic vampyrs of the South are offering Faolan an alliance he can't refuse, but doesn’t know if he can stomach. Now he's caught between ancient evils, government agents, and a psychopathic assassin from his past. With his loyal crew uncertain and the woman he loves pulling away, Faolan must decide whether to maintain his humanity and watch his empire crumble, or embrace the monster within and become everything he fears he could be.
