This is somewhat inspired from my experiences from the last several months, with plenty of modifications while trying to be as close to the source of inspiration as possible. For anyone involved reading this, the novel is not meant to offend you, and the character that may or may not represent you is merely fictitious.

This is my first book, as well as my British and Irish slang experiment, as English isn't my native language, so I apologize if there are any anomalies in writing or grammar. <<less

Who is the true villain in this story?... more>>

Luca Moreno has always been the good guy, forever doing what he can to make sure that justice is not only served, but done so fairly. Which is why he went into law enforcement. However, one day he's assigned to his biggest case yet and he's plunged undercover into the world of the Brooks family and the criminal empire they lead. With his close friend and co-worker Adiv, he plans to destroy the mafia from the inside out, thereby putting an end to the corruption and terror it incites.

Then he meets Raven, niece of the Don, and she changes everything -- his role within the organization, his feelings, his goals, his morals, and ultimately, who he is entirely.

And like the waves of the ocean insidiously erode the shore, something of innocence becomes something else entirely. <<less

In a world where monsters and man must coexist, a teenage boy comes to terms with his half-human self. He writes of his struggles and choices in a red leather journal, one which he intends for his future child. It is a story of emergence, a coming of age, or a transformation of the self through which all people go through. But not all transformations are for the better. And not all things can be forgiven.... more>>

Author's Note: Emergence is a story that existed in my head for a long time and I needed to get it out so I could move on in life. I put a lot of myself into it, which is to say that I wrote it solely for myself, and that it is difficult for me to return to in regards to editing. I am not sure how well it reads for others (I certainly think it is flawed, especially towards the end) but I hope whoever takes the time to read it is able to feel that their time was not wasted. <<less
