A noir detective and his alien partner race through 1940s Los Angeles to stop a shapeshifter killing police officers 🕵‍👽

Step into 1940s Los Angeles where a hard-nosed homicide detective and a telepathic grey alien hunt a killer that can change its face. Star Noir: Book Four continues a 6-part saga that blends the grit of classic noir with the eerie pulse of sci-fi. Follow Detective Alan Miller and Ellis Tate through Central Station as a shapeshifter targets LAPD officers, secrets corrode trust, and every clue cuts deeper. Expect snappy dialogue, vintage cars, celebrity cameos like Orson Welles, and a theme that asks how long anyone can hide from their demons. Choose from digital or print editions, poster and pin exclusives, and limited drawn-in spots. Back Star Noir: Book Four on Kickstarter now.
