The Mercer Files - The Widow's Tear

By: Deam, Phillip

Behind every diamond, there's blood. Behind this one, there's a body count.

Private Investigator Frank Mercer has seen the rot this city hides, but nothing like her. A missing black diamond known as the Widow's Tear, and a woman with secrets stitched into every seam.

As Mercer digs deeper, he's pulled into a world of smoky lounges, cold corpses, and double-crosses that cut sharper than a switchblade. Everyone wants the diamond.

Some want revenge. And someone... wants Mercer dead.

But Frank's not the kind to back down, even when the whiskey's gone dry and the shadows start whispering.

Slick, gritty, and full of slow-burn tension, The Widow's Tear is a cinematic noir thriller that asks: how many lies does it take to bury the truth?

"They say diamonds are forever, but in this city, they only last until the next man wants it more"
