Synopsis

The gods exist. The Supernatural is real. But poor foolish Mortals can never pierce through the Truth hidden by the Veil. They say Ignorance is Bliss. But for Adam, such Bliss woven by a lie is worthless. In his opinion, Ignorance may be Bliss but --- Knowledge is power. This was the truest fact; something Adam built his empire around. ---- He wasn’t always this rich. He wasn’t always this powerful. There was a time he too struggled to earn enough for the treatment of his sick and dying mother. But one day, on a Halloween night, his life was forever changed. His eyes were opened to a completely new Reality. The truth that was hidden from the eyes of all normal humans. An entirely different world, rules, and society exist just in front of us. Follow Adam, as he uncovers the Truth about his identity, the power in his blood, and his adventures as he rises to the throne that is rightfully his. To attain his goal, he will not hesitate. He will even become the God of Crime if that is necessary. --------- The story will be moderately slow-paced during the First four volumes as I set Adam in the world and slowly develop the world-building and Adam starts to adapt to the new reality. I know it might not be to the taste of everyone, but I believe it's worth it. We discover the world together with Adam and how he will grow from someone who knew absolutely nothing about the supernatural world to being someone no one can ignore. This will be a long road and I would be happy if you are willing to walk this road with me. ---- (Alternative title: Midnight Prince: Empire of Sin) [ Tags ]: Mature| Grimdark | Gore |Netori | Harem | Milf | Young & Mature | Supernatural |Action | Gang War | Criminal Empire | System | Gigolo | Handsome MC | Weak to Strong MC | Antihero| Neutral good to Lawful Neutral Evil. | Showbiz | Psychic | ****** ) ----- Disclaimer: The cover picture is AI made and is the art for Adam as [Magician] Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HikaruGenji Discord: https://discord.gg/3v2xvhvD6j My other work Son of The Hero King: https://www.webnovel.com/book/son-of-the-hero-king_24153504605334705

Often, the best LA crime novels feature a seedy underworld. They show the darker side of the city, like the criminal gangs, corrupt cops, and the desperation of the people involved. For example, in 'The Big Sleep', we see the underbelly of 1930s LA with its illegal gambling and blackmail.

One characteristic is the use of the city as a character itself. Los Angeles' diverse neighborhoods, from the glitzy Hollywood to the gritty downtown, add depth to the stories. Another is the presence of complex and often morally ambiguous characters. Detectives in these fictions might not always follow the rules. Also, themes of corruption, both in the police force and in society in general, are common.

I'd recommend 'City of Quartz' by Mike Davis too. Although it's not a traditional crime novel in the sense of a detective story, it delves deep into the social and political problems in Los Angeles which are often related to crime. It gives a broader context to understanding the crime - ridden aspects of the city.

One of the great Los Angeles crime novels is 'The Big Sleep' by Raymond Chandler. It's a classic that features the iconic detective Philip Marlowe and is filled with the seedy underbelly of LA in the 1930s. Another is 'L.A. Requiem' by Robert Crais. It has a complex plot and engaging characters. And 'Devil in a Blue Dress' by Walter Mosley is also excellent. It gives a great look at the African - American experience in LA during the 1940s.
