Furst and Mayne: Book I – The Case of the Phantom Scarface Killer is a gripping historical crime novel set in Victorian England, where darkness hides more than just criminals—it cloaks conspiracies that threaten global catastrophe.

Retired British Army sergeant Abaddon Mayne, still haunted by the horrors of the Boer War, is drawn into a tangled pursuit of a phantom killer. At his side: Siderus Furst, a sharp-minded American detective marked by personal loss and physical limitations. Together, the unlikely duo races against time to prevent stolen weapon designs from falling into dangerous hands.

Part whodunit, part political thriller, and deeply human at its core, this story explores justice, redemption, and the cost of chasing both. With vivid period detail and layered characters, Furst and Mayne is the first in a bold new series that brings 19th-century crime fiction into the 21st-century imagination.
