Neonquiem Tokyo - Book 1 (Pre-Order 3/13/26)

Delivered via BookFunnel on release day — easy downloads + device help.

Tokyo glows like a motherboard after midnight—every street a circuit, every light a pulse. Chase Morgan arrives in Japan to prove an APEX weapons system so precise it shouldn't be possible. Rika Sato is there to ensure the public demonstration is flawless, no matter the cost.

Then the glitches begin. Tiny. Elegant. Easy to dismiss—until they start steering outcomes. A shadow hacker network known as Helix has buried sabotage so deeply that it appears normal. The taunts and corrupted code are tagged with a single name: Kitsune—a ghost in the machine with perfect timing and a taste for misdirection.

As the world's eyes close in on the upcoming demo, Chase and Rika are forced into an uneasy alliance, racing through rain-lit Tokyo while trust fractures and attraction complicates every decision. Because if Helix strikes as planned, it won't be an accident. It will be a message—and Tokyo will be the proof.

Neonquiem Tokyo is a high-tension Techno-Thriller Romance with slow-burn heat, grounded near-future tech, and neon-soaked atmosphere.

This book concludes on a decisive turning point and continues directly in Book Two of the Neonquiem Tokyo Duology.
