DEAD WHITE NOIR
BOOK ONE
The Truth Doesn't Stay Buried
It looks like an overdose.
It isn't that simple.
Detective Mason has worked enough scenes to know when something feels off.
The details don't align. The timeline feels rehearsed. And the victim – an investigative journalist with complicated connections – leaves behind more questions than evidence.
As the case begins to shift beneath him, Mason finds himself pulled into something that doesn't fit inside a standard report.
Dead White Noir reimagines the classic Snow White story through a modern noir lens – stripped of fairy dust and recast in glass towers and precinct halls, where survival depends on who controls the narrative.
truth has a cost
Dead White Noir blends classic 1940s detective cadence with a near-modern urban landscape – restrained violence, layered motivations, and dialogue that carries more than it says.
This isn't a story about innocence. It's about narrative – and who survives long enough to control it.

A seasonal story
Each installment of Dead White Noir unfolds like a television season – self-contained yet building toward a larger conspiracy.
Book One begins with a death, but it does not end there.
What begin as a case becomes something else entirely. Some stories are filed away. Some are buried. Some refuse to stay that way.
